General Rocker Tommy Lee angered over whale masturbation

[The Helper]

Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee is angry -- really angry -- about the way Shamu is being treated at SeaWorld.

In a letter to SeaWorld Orlando, Lee complains about the methods used by the theme park to obtain sperm from Tillikum - the orca responsible for the death of SeaWorld trainer Dawn Brancheau this spring.

Tillikum was brought to SeaWorld Orlando specifically for breeding purposes in 1998. He continues to appear in Shamu shows there and to be used in killer whale breeding programs.

PETA, an organization which Lee has long supported, has called for the whale's release back into the wild.

Lee calls Tillikum SeaWorld's "chief sperm bank."

And the Orca will die

Hmm Why?
Well, would you rather live in a small cage/aquariums?

You cannot release animals that have been in captivity. They won't have the experience required to survive in the wild. They would die.

What he said ^ how about you go back to the wild (the Amazon) and lets see how many hours you can stay alive

Nobody is out there to masturbate in the wild. Probably would just die in days if set free....

Yeah, I kind of agree. But If this particular whale was born in the wild then it should be back there. Don't you think so?

Well, anyway, It's completely sad that whales and dolphins born into captivity will be captives for life .

Maybe there's a way to masturbate in the wild?

Hehehe No thanks, I'm not born to be wild. @ReVolver

No. I don't think so. He has become accustomed to humans feeding him. He would still die.

That is the problem with captivity.

You can never release captive animals once they've grown accustomed to captive life.

You have to look at the other side of the picture. While captivity does indeed have its dark side, it also has its benefits.

We get food, entertainment, and companionship from captive animals.

We can also help repopulate endangered species.
