SeaWorld Orca 'Unna' Is Sick

23/9/2015

0 Comments

 
SeaWorld has reported that one of their orcas, a captive-born known as 'Unna', is undergoing treatment at their park in San Antonio. The Orca Project says of this news, "SeaWorld reported today that Unna...is under medical treatment for a fungal cystitis/UTI. While it's possible this could have been contracted through the few worn down teeth on her lower jaw (some have pinprick-sized holes), it's preposterous to claim that this infection "happens in wild orca populations" too. You got a source on that, SeaWorld?"
