Re: Sea World killer whale claims second victim at Tampa Park

I wonder what it would have been like to walk among dinosaurs and share habitat with them. Buster, care to share what it was like?

If you ask me it would be nice for a change if a horrific event wasn't caught on tape.

This may come as a shocker to folks but animals don't want us caging them up and trying to make them part of our world.

This is a great doc:

The Cove Movie: Welcome


Basically it is about the guy who trained Flipper and now realizes that the show Flipper has brought a hardship on to the dolphins. He is now trying to save the dolphins from humans.

Wonder what unusual circumstances were involved. They normally do not attack humans, at least as a food source they don't. Could have been the result of some other form of provocation.

Or they just sense fear, like most wild animals.

Demonstrates how unpredictable a wild animal can be. This is a person who has undoubtedly work with this animal on many occasions before. Sad.
