Poor Tilikum. Hopefully his plight will serve to help others, and change the way we view animals. I hope so.
He was a slave, much as many 'black' humans were slaves in a bygone age. Now those things fill most decent people with horror, and cannot ever happen again in the same way. Let's hope that we are looking towards a future -not very far away hopefully -where animals are not treated in such a way and disrespected. And one day we will look back and view those captive animals in the same way we view human slaves -and resolve never to repeat such things.
Blessings to his Soul in the next world.
