I think it is interesting that Sea World is now saying this woman "Slipped and fell" into the enclosure, even though eyewitnesses are very clear on what they saw. I think Sea World is concerned about further restrictions with regard to these animals in captivity. Always looking out for the bottom line.
There has got to be video proof of what really transpired. Not that it needs to be seen by the public. However, out of respect for this woman who lost her life - the truth should be known, no matter what it is. When a life is lost, it is not the time for PR "spin" - I sure hope this is not what Sea World is doing, bc it would not turn out well for them in the end .

It's just a sad case all around.
I agree, Jim. Just shocking that they are breeding an animal who is clearly suffering psychologically and has previously shown the consequences of that - so tremendously careless . It really shows where Sea World has there priorities, imo.
