SeaWorld announces end to orca breeding

Posted | Contributed by GoBucks89

SeaWorld will end its killer whale breeding immediately, the company announced Thursday, after years of controversy over keeping its orcas in captivity. The sweeping change to its business model will also include ending theatrical shows and introducing "new, inspiring, natural orca encounters." That change will start in the San Diego park next year, followed by San Antonio and then Orlando in 2019.

Read a short statement from the company, and more from The Orlando Sentinel.
