IP Dawn Brancheau! Trainer Killed By Whale at sea world! :(

whale was linked to other human deaths in past and the lady was in the tank with the killer whale and due to the size of the whale no trainer is a loud in tank with it but she was in it anyways.

killer whale........

...I'm sorry for the death of the trainer. That's awefull.
I never have been a supporter of Large animals / mammals in confined
areas like that. I don't really care for zoo's but may be for smaller animals
and mammals. I'm NOT A peta supporter but you can bet that they are
going to say something about this and I can't blame them.
Yeah....." Killer Whale, not much else to say"........

Ya is tragic and she was from Northwest IN. Again, I hope they don't kill the Whale. These animals shouldn't be in captivity anyway.

From what I understand about killer wales they rarely attack humans. Looks like this one just plain didn't like us, period.
But I have to say, it's not the whales fault this trainer was in the tank with it.

Horrific freak accident.
The park has fault too, not just the trainer; this whale was linked to two prior deaths and still kept around for a third. O_O ...why?

it was kept around for mating! Sea world has rules for staff! No one was aloud in tank with this whale and she was in the tank with the whale so its her and only her fault

Im surprised spinem_90 hasnt been in here i think she knew the trainer and the whale. She goes to sea world like once a year and its one of here dream jobs. So she knows more about this then anyone.

no way. that same whale attacked in 1991,1999 and now 2010. they asked jack hanna and he wouldnt give it a second thought about putting the whale down. thats funny my 20 lb dog could bite a postman, make him lose a drop, and he would have to be put down.

anyways no on was suppose to swim in that water. she disobeyed the rules and payed the ultimate price. R.I.P. sad story
