Bella Thorne Reveals the Heartbreaking Truth About SeaWorld

Bella Thorne is a top-tier performer: She’s acted in and directed several movies, released a ton of music, and made a major impact on our childhoods as one of the stars of Disney’s Shake It Up. 🤩 Now, she’s starring in a PETA campaign to speak up for individuals who are forced to perform and be on display—dolphins, whales, and other animals trapped at SeaWorld.

If what you just learned about SeaWorld leaves you shook, you’re not alone—other compassionate people like Bella feel the same way. The abusement park sexually stimulates male dolphins and forcibly impregnates females, and orcas there become so frustrated that they rip each other’s skin off. 😰

You can see Bella’s emotions on full display as she reads the ugly truth about SeaWorld—just imagine how heartbreaking it is for the highly emotional animals who live that reality. Like us, they can feel pain, fear, and joy, but SeaWorld treats them as if they were mere objects to be used for entertainment.

In the above vid, Bella used her acting and directing skills to show the nightmare of being trapped at SeaWorld. She chooses to go in front of audiences and perform, but animals at the parks have no choice. The company makes money off their suffering by forcing some of them to perform and putting them on display for most of their miserable lives. 😡

Countless animals have died at SeaWorld, like Kayla the orca. Kayla was born in a tiny tank, torn away from her mom before she was three years old, hauled from park to park, and forced to perform tricks. She miscarried one baby, lost another, and died at just 30 years old, which is much earlier than the natural life expectancy of orcas in nature.  

Orcas and other dolphins belong in the open ocean, where they can swim dozens of miles per day and share close bonds with their friends and fam. But as long as people keep going to SeaWorld, the company is gonna keep churning out generations of prisoners for profit. 💰

If you want to learn more about how unbearable the conditions at SeaWorld are for orcas, watch Blackfish, a groundbreaking documentary about an orca named Tilikum who was held prisoner by the abusement park. You can also look to other celebs like Noah Cyrus, Krysten Ritter, and Eva Gutowski for tips on how to speak out against SeaWorld’s cruelty.

Help save animals from this hell by following Bella’s advice: NEVER buy a ticket to SeaWorld or any other abusement park. 💪
