Dark side of captivity - Morgan | Whale and Dolphin Conservation

Morgan’s story is a tragic one. In this video, you can see Morgan, confined in the small medical pool while the orca show goes on in the stadium in front of her. The music and applause you hear are a disturbing contrast to the trauma she is displaying as she chews the concrete walls of the tank and cries out in frustration. This is the dark side of captivity - Morgan chewing concrete. She has been here at Loro Parque in Tenerife since 2011 after she was found alone and emaciated in 2010. The plan had been to nurse her back to health and release her, but she was never freed. A 2012 report by the Free Morgan Foundation revealed she had been attacked by other orcas, bore wounds from self-mutilation and had ground her teeth down chewing on the walls and bars of her tank. She was made pregnant and tragically her baby, Ula, died suddenly a few weeks before her third birthday in August 2021. Morgan’s world should be vast and dominated by family, but her reality is a small and disturbing place. See the world through Morgan’s eyes and help us uncover the #DarkSideOfCaptivity.
