Sea world has not captured and brought a wild orcas to their park since the 1980s.
They ended the orcas breeding program.
Russia is still actively capturing wild orcas to sell to marine parks. (They made it illegal a few years ago but it is most likely still happening.)
Parks in China are still breeding orcas in captivity.
Parks in Japan still have people in the water with orcas during the shows. They also have said they would want to restart their orcas breeding program.
Yeah Sea World was horrific and terrible. They did some of the worst shit imaginable 50 years ago.
But parks in asia are still doing it to this day. Right now.

Keeping intelligent creatures like this in a tank is tantamount to slavery.
Fuck sea world.
