 * Keep Before this becomes a snowball, I'd like to note some of the reasons urged for a keep the last time around. First, although this is, for reasons unknown, not sourced, the information is verifiable from the sites for the different parks.  Whether for good or for bad, the captive whales are the drawing card for most Sea World type parks, "Shamu" being the prime example. From what I understand, there are less than 50 orcas in captivity.  I'm sure that the information is in each of the respective park pages, but the point is to identify those institutions that either (a) protect "killer whales" from extinction or (b) condemn the animals to a lifetime of being in an enclosed space, depending on one's point of view.
