In 2013, Gabriela Cowperthwaite directed the documentary Blackfish. This documentary is about Tilikum, an orca from SeaWorld that has taken the lives of many trainers. The documentary makes the claim that orcas should be freed from captivity. While in captivity they are causing harm to both themselves, humans, and the other orcas. Blackfish is a great example of an argument that can be rhetorically analyzed because it has pathos, ethos, and logos. The target audience of this documentary is the

146 orcas have died in captivity, and 48 of those orcas have died at SeaWorld. The average person believes that orcas, also known as killer whales, are in captivity for their own well being, or to research their species, but that is false. Killer whales are tortured to do our bidding, for other people's entertainment and greediness. The orca trainers limit their food rations so that they become hungry enough to want the “food treat” after they do the tricks that are force upon them. Orcas do not

Mass dolphin murder is one of the many issues that are happening in our world today in the 21st century. The Documentary Called “The Cove” would make the viewers open their eyes of what this world actually is and the secret Taiji, Japan is trying to keep.

The Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphin usually lives near the surface of the water, but sometimes it can dive as deep as 2,000 feet. Dolphins have more blood for their body size than do land animals, so they are able to store more oxygen. Dolphins can store twice as much oxygen in their muscles as humans. Also, during deep dives they can partially collapse their lungs and specially hinged ribs. This helps them to stay under

So let’s say that you were an orca or a dolphin and you were held in captivity against your will by another human being. How would you feel about this situation? Well, in the case of many unfortunate aquatic mammals in marine parks and zoos around the world, most of these magnificent animals are held captive in tanks with no room to roam around, or have to deal with being alone, which can trigger stress and aggression.

Years later a two year old whale was captured and arrived in 81’. His name was Tilikum, coming in at two years old and 4,000 pounds. How do you go about taking orcas out of their setting, changing how they feel, and go about certain lies of how situations occurred? Why was Tilikum to blame? What really happens when you take orcas
