Tilukim, Orcas And Freedom by Rick London

Sunday, July 11, 2021 18:09

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Rick London is the founder of Google & MSN’s #1 Ranked Offbeat Cartoons and Funny Gifts. His Webcomics site has 5000+ cartoons and 250,000+ cartoon gifts & has lured 8.7 million+ visitors.

What is it about whales and dolphins? I’m sixty-one and as an aging boomer was brought up like most other aging boomers, to believe cetaceans (whales, dolphins etc.) were happy campers in tanks/pools.

I’ve thought about them and created cartoons about them long before they re-evolved into the news. Seaworld’s “pride and joy” Tilikum, a bull orca, is dying. He was their prize catch back in the early 80s. He’s weighed 12.5 thousand pounds. More than half the orcas now at Florida’s Seaworld share his genes. Imagine how much money that saved them in pursuing more. They became a “puppy farm” so to speak, being every bit as much in the orca breeding business as in cruel entertainment.

And though my beloved wife Lee and I live on the ledge of a National Park/Forest, it is very easy to forget when one lives inland, in the mountains as we do, that Orcas and dolphins are every bit as wild as the creatures we have grown to love in our forest.

Though I’ve done my share of reading, given my Autism, I don’t always retain it. However, my patient beloved wife Lee, has a way of explaining it to where it is not slanted, but simply independently researched (and double independently researched facts).
