Jean-Michel Cousteau's Statement on Captive Orcas & the Trainer Killed at Sea World

Jean-Michel Cousteau comments on the tragedy on February 24, 2010, when trainer Dawn Brancheau was dragged into the water and killed by Tilikum, an orca at Sea World's Orlando park. This is the third death associated with Tilikum while in captivity.

Marine Mammals

Research conducted over the past 40 years on marine mammals in the wild, especially whales and dolphins, has shown that they truly are our counterparts in the sea.

They are to the sea what we are to the land—intelligent, social, with language and play, capable of learning, and with populations stretching from pole to pole.
