SeaWorld is home to one of the largest animal encounters in the world with three locations in Florida, Texas, and California. SeaWorld continues to grow and inspire young minds. SeaWorld was founded in 1959 by George Millay, Ken Norris, David DeMott, and Milt Shedd.

SeaWorld is known for its animal rescues and shoreline beautification processes. All of the animals on exhibit in SeaWorld are ocean rescues. The company rehabilitates the animals and releases them back to the wide once they are ready. SeaWorld strives to maintain a green image by using park ticket purchases towards helping save animals and clean oceans. Not only is SeaWorld educational, but also a thrilling experience with its roller coasters and ocean-themed water park rides.

So sad how they treat their animals. The animals only perform for the incentive of food. When not performing, orcas are left in small cages with very little stimulus when they should be swimming hundreds of miles out in the wild. Due to the entertainment industry, whales in sea world have lost instinctive habits and would unfortunately no longer survive in the wild.

So sad to see the animals here. Extremely overpriced for what you end up getting. The animals are just sad and forced to live in conditions that are way below their minima requirements. Skip this park and find an ethical place to enjoy seeing the amazing animals.

The dolphins live in a 2 by 2 container. Talk about animal cruelty. The only good thing there was the fish pond that suck on your hands. Everything else is sad to see. They should build way bigger aquariums for the animals.

It may be fun, but a lot of the animals here such as Orcas are not given enough space and their life is essentially depressing slavery, its not worth it for our cheap entertainment. Be better.

This establishment should not be running. It is harmful to ocean life and needs to learn about catch and release. Do not feed into this company of animal torture.

Last time I went was as a child and while I do remember myself the park is a jail for all the animals in it. The concept is cruel and should not be supported by the public.

Seaworld does not have enough space for the animals that it keeps in captivity. They focus too much on money rather than the ethics of what they are doing.

The epitome of animal cruelty. Have skinny, underfed animals that are used all day for entertainment. The rides are good though.

I’d give 0 stars. It’s just not right to cage up such beautiful creatures for human amusement. They should be set free.

SeaWorld is an incredibly terrible excuse for an amusement park. The systematic torture and maltreatment of marine life in SeaWorld is sickening.
