Orlando -- Musician Tommy Lee has just sent a letter to SeaWorld that raises a disturbing question about how the company is able to breed Tilikum, the captive orca who has killed three people so far, and also keep employees safe. Lee's letter follows:
Terry W. Prather
President, SeaWorld
Dear Mr. Prather:
After learning about the bizarre way you breed killer whales, my friends at PETA and I are stumped about SeaWorld's announcement that no people will ever again have direct contact with Tilikum, the orca who has killed 3 people including his trainer this year. We understand that you refuse to release this frustrated whale because he is your chief sperm bank, and we know from SeaWorld's own director of safety (as well as videos on the web) that the way you get his sperm is by having someone get into the pool and masturbate him with a cow's vagina filled with hot water. Even during my wildest days with Motley Crue, I never could've imagined something so sick and twisted. Simply put, how can SeaWorld claim that trainers no longer have direct contact with this whale when they are jacking him off? That is about as "direct" as it gets. I hope it doesn't take another tragic death for SeaWorld to realize it shouldn't frustrate these smart animals by keeping them in tanks.
Sincerely,
Tommy Lee
