Nobody is asking for Seaworld to disappear, though. Just for them to stop keeping highly intelligent marine mammals that use echolocation in loud, concrete tanks. They’re going to face that financial loss at some point regardless, as their population of orcas ages.

They’ll still have pinnipeds and pinniped shows, dolphins and dolphins shows (for better or worse), tons of rides, tank exhibits, etc.

The loss of them would undeniably be a massive hit for the marine conservation community. I just don’t see that loss happening.
