Cruel
Do not visit these places if you actually care about animals. Orcas naturally swim 40-100 miles per day. Here they swim round in small circles in a concrete tank living in misery. Its the most depressing thing to see. The only reason they perform is because they are forced to for food. Watch black fish and see for yourself.
