Eva  Žilková
“We could have been friends, but you don’t care about friendship. I’m not angry. It’s not your fault. You’re an orca.
— Angels of the Ocean”
― Eva Žilková, Angels of the Ocean: Why endure captivity when the sea is so close...

Jason Hribal
“Sea World has owned fifty-one orcas called Shamu. The original Shamu was captured in 1965, after animal collector Ted Griffin harpooned the calf’s mother in Puget Sound.”
― Jason Hribal, Fear of the Animal Planet: The Hidden History of Animal Resistance
