The delight of having fun with our loved ones is likely to be the first thing that springs to mind when we think of theme parks. Although SeaWorld bills itself as an amusement park, many believe that the quantity of sea species kept in the parks makes it more of a zoo. These creatures have generated quite a stir. SeaWorld is well-known for having orcas as the park’s face and headliner. What is the issue? There have been numerous instances involving whales, including as Tilikum, the whale who killed SeaWorld trainer Dawn Brancheau.

Dawn Brancheau knew she wanted to work at SeaWorld immediately

Some people spend their entire life attempting to figure out what they want to do. Dawn Brancheau was never like that. She apparently knew exactly what she wanted to accomplish with her life when she was ten years old: work as a trainer at SeaWorld. It all started when Dawn went to the park for the first time in Orlando. Dawn told her mother, “This is what I want to do,” as she watched the trainers work with the orcas, according to the Orlando Sentinel. The whales have long been the park’s face, and Dawn was terrified of getting in the water with the sea monsters. She had no idea what her dream would mean.
