They confirmed it on FB last night.

For those that don't know what stan means...
As for me, probably just the Disney Parks in general, and maybe Alton Towers.
thanks sistren.

I stan Aussie World :sass:
-
Are you really going to start another topic on this again ...
Yes. Why is Parkz admin trying to stifle relevant discussion?
Who here is on the payroll at SeaKILLworld?
What proof is that video offering? What are we meant to discuss about it?
May as well have linked to a Rick Roll and be done with it.
screaming.
you're a grade A idiot

Since when has Sea World tried to kill animals, it's quite the opposite. Have you ever heard of the word [REHABILITATION]?!!!
They use animals as glorified circus props.

The Ausparks crew seemed to have a good time there.
The mazes look like they were a lot better this year.
Aussie World is really stepping up.
-
He is making fun of your "Boycotting Seaworld because SW US are harming the animals"
It made me laugh a bit too!
That thread was very valid though and i see it touched a lot of nerves.
-
Nah - i'm boycotting AussieWorld, because they're similar to Six Flags Magic Mountain - which was in a movie I saw, and didn't like.
WTF
-
From all reports the mazes were a massive improvement over last year.
Anyone go?
-
Who's going to pay for their needs if we are all boycotting SW?
Maybe the selfish people who go support SeaWorld so they can be entertained can donate some money for the animals they claim to care about.
-
Not really. As all humans should, we learn from our mistakes. It would be shameful if SW continued the practice this but they don't. It would be shameful to let the animals go now knowing that they would have a high chance of death. What are your ideas or what would you do now with the animals currently in captivity if you closed SW down?
The animals should be left there and it should be kept as a not for profit organisation like PETA.
-
The problem is Keiko was taken out of the sea and put into captivity. I have seen that argument before but really Keiko should never have been put into captivity in the first place.
I think SW do a very good job looking after the animals but I do remember when SW first opened up, SW did take animals from the wild. They don’t need to do it now because they have enough animals that can reproduce now but at one stage SW did capture animals to make money of them.
Terrible. Shameful history.
-
So much justification for evil.
-
I think it's worth noting too the whales in SWUS (the whole point of Blackfish) are kept in small enclosures. How do you see whales at SWGC? Oh that's right you hope on a boat and go out to sea. Honest question, how are, as the GP, supposed to do our bit to save wildlife if we know nothing about it? That's why we have zoos and marine parks. There's this term called edutainment. Entertainment while learning. Have you seen the dolphin show before? It literally spends the duration of the show talking about the history of dolphins and facts about how and where they live. Is that what you call doing tricks for entertainment?
What about polar bears, sea lions, dolphins, etc who are all enslaved to Sea World for their life span merely so you can be entertained? I'm disgusted.
-
That happens at Sea World in Australia does it?
Yes it happens at all zoo's. Why are you pretending as if Sea World is some not for profit organisation that doesn't specialise in entertainment?
-
You take their stories at face value and reject those made by the park itself. At the very least, until proven otherwise, both are as bad as each other.
Do you deny that SWGC does good work, rescuing sick or injured animals? If not, then how else do you expect it to make money? If so, please supply your proof.
SW GC shouldn't be making money at all, not off the torture of animals which can lead to a life long psychosis and other mental disorders. Oh but they're animals so they don't have feelings right?
Imagine if someone separated YOU from your family when you were 5 years old and stuck you in an enclosed bath for the rest of your life. Think about that.
-
The idea of boycotting the park based on misinformation spread by animal rights nutters about a different park is mental, and you are wrong.
People who care about the rights of animals are nutters? That says everything i need to know about you.
So you're saying SWGC don't rescue animals, or that they plunder them for our entertainment? They never release them? They make them perform daily by withholding food and generally mistreat them?
Do you have anything to back up these claims? Blackfish is about a completely different company, after all.
Don't kid yourself, SWGC is just a glorified so called "conservation" ZOO. The animals are still enclosed in tiny, inhumane pens for your entertainment. How are they any better than the USA SeaWorlds?
-
But everytime I go to SW GC and seeing the beautiful creatures it brings a smile to my face.
Just as long as you're entertained and have a smile on your face. While the animals are held hostage and suffering psychosis.
-
If you care so much about these majestic creatures, why don't I pose you this question. Would you release a dolphin into the wild, who is unfit for survival in the wild?
Why take them out of the wild in the first place? Oh, for our "entertainment".
As you know, SWUS and SWGC have absolutely nothing to do with each other, aside from the similar name.
You have watched Blackfish, and yes, keeping animals in captivity is bad, yet SWGC at least seem to rescue injured creatures with the view to setting them free again. Though I do see your point about a polar bear.
With that in mind, what about any kind of zoos? What about pets?
In any case, you've watched Blackfish which is the argument put forward by the activists. I suggest you read the article slick mentioned in order to make an informed opinion, because you're only getting one side:
The last time i went to Sea World, all the animals especially the Polar Bears look distressed and/or depressed. The Polar Bear enclosure is the WORST. It's dreadful.
That link is nothing more than propaganda paid for by SeaWorld. They have a vested interest in spinning the line that everything is all fine n dandy since they profit from your ignorance.
-
So how many of you are employees at SeaWorld then?
Ive swam with Dolphins out in the wild in Sydneys Botany Bay and they are beautiful, magnificent creatures who deserve the freedom to live their lives in the oceans of the world. Yet somehow people think its acceptable to hold them hostage in concrete baths for the rest of their lives for our entertainment?
-
ugh, nonsense
You haven't seen the movie have you?
Anyone who watches this and steps foot in a SeaWorld after obviously doesn't have a heart.
-
Just got done watching Blackfish, it was a documentary about orca whales at SeaWorld in the U.S.
I know our local SeaWorld doesn't have orca whales but what about all the other animals they inhumanely hold captive in bath tubs for the rest of their lives…and for what? Our entertainment. It's sickening and we need to boycott! I for one will never be purchasing an annual Village Roadshow ticket again and will persuade as many people as i can until SeaWorld closes.
-
So I'm not usually one to buy into these types of rumours, but i do actually have a friend who works at Dreamworld and he said this rumour is definitely going around amongst the staff.
And furthermore, he's seen the higher ups having meetings on the Cyclone station platform before the parks been opening lately.
