For more than three decades, the orca Kshamenk has been confined in a tiny tank at Mundo Marino in Argentina, deprived of everything that makes life meaningful to his species.
Orcas are intelligent, social, and far-ranging animals who naturally swim vast distances with their family pods—but Kshamenk has been confined since 1992 and without the companionship of another orca since 2000, circling endlessly under the hot sun.
PETA is urging the Secretariat of Tourism, Environment and Sports to intervene and transfer him to a seaside sanctuary, where he can finally experience the ocean and possibly even bond with other orcas. Please join us in demanding his freedom.
