Ulysses and Kasatka are from Iceland. Orkid is the orphan daughter of Kandu and Orky. The family is commonly seen swimming with many other orca families that come to the area each year. The fact is that at 30 Corky is the oldest captive orca in the world. But not at the sound of a whistle.
Orca whales are the largest members of the dolphin family.
Corky still has a family to go to. Millions of us have seen, heard, and learned from them. Let's send messages to Sea World's owner Anheuser-Busch, to Congress, and The Corky Project. Orca are much larger than human beings. But human beings will decide their fate.
