In the face of the climate crisis imperiling endangered species, some activists and governments are turning to a radical, rights-based approach to protect nature.

SeaWorld still holds 22 other orcas in captivity at its three facilities in Orlando, San Antonio, and San Diego.

The company’s Abu Dhabi attraction is set to debut in 2020 and will use virtual reality to depict marine life, not live orcas.

The Trans-Mountain project would almost triple the amount of tar sands oil flowing to a port near Vancouver, British Columbia.

California has just become the first state to ban orca breeding and orca entertainment shows.

SeaWorld will no longer breed killer whales in captivity and will end their theatrical shows.

A new study shows that the din from large ships matches the frequencies used by Pacific Northwest orcas to find food and communicate with one another.
