Whale shows resume after killing

SEAWORLD will restart its killer whale shows today after Tilikum, the largest orca in captivity, dragged a trainer to her death in the water at the Orlando park on Wednesday.

SeaWorld Parks and Entertainment president Jim Atchison said yesterday that trainers will not get in the water with the killer whales until officials finish reviewing what happened to veteran trainer Dawn Brancheau, 40.

“We will make improvements and changes and we will move forward,” Atchison said at a news conference at the Florida park, one of three SeaWorld locations. The others are in San Antonio and San Diego.
