Shamu

A killer whale killed a trainer Wednesday afternoon at SeaWorld in Orlando. Dawn Brancheau was the victim of these horrific accident. Supposedly Dawn was in the whale holding area about 2 p.m. when she apparently slipped or fell into the tank and was fatally injured by one of the whales. The killer whale got a hold of Dawn and violently shook her underwater. One reporter claimed her shoe flew off! When you search "Seaworld Attack" on google, millions of results come up with all different stories. There is talk about shutting down Seaworld entirely since this incident. This is a trajic and very sad story, but if you think about it, its a KILLER WHALE. I'm not sure if there are any repercussions for this whales actions, but I don't think it would be fair. I don't even think its fair for the whales to be taken out of the wild crammed in a fish tank anyways. Prayers go out to Dawn's family.
