Marineland says it must euthanize 30 whales if Canada does not provide funding

Marineland has threatened to euthanize 30 beluga whales if Canada’s federal government does not provide financial support for the embattled Niagara Falls amusement park. The warning comes after the country’s fisheries minister blocked the transfer of the captive whales to a theme park in China.

A pretty grim situation from the sound of things.

I understand the whole idea of keeping these animals out of captivity, but at this point that's their only option. Just ship them to the park in China and let them live their lives.

Twenty whales, 19 belugas and one orca, have died at the park since 2019

And they still have 30? How do they have this many whales? I really don’t understand.

That is pretty astounding.
