Whale show gone from aquarium

VANCOUVER (SNS) - The staff at the Vancouver Aquarium have done an about-face and, to the surprise of many tourists, can- celled their world-famous killer whale show.

The Aquarium § suddenly

show was gone for good, and instead the whales were there to “educate the public” in their “nat- ural” habitats.

Aquarium officials told the media that the aquarium is no longer a “circus,” and has instead taken on an on-going whale- watching program.

Although officials say they no longer want to see the whales trained to do tricks, they still have no plans to release whales back into the wild in the future.
