From Niagara This Week:
For nearly five decades, Marineland has used images of dancing mascots and whales kissing kids to persuade families that their park is a friendly and fun environment.
Millions have been convinced by 30-second fun-in-the-sun commercials and the park’s unforgettable jingle, but animal rights groups insist the facility is a prison for its captive animals.
While the theme park continues to grow in size and popularity every summer, one thing has become clear in recent years: not everyone “loves” Marineland.
