Brief Marineland 2014 season recap

Occasionally I have a regular reader send me in his thoughts/observations about Marineland. Like a lot of people, he is conflicted about the park. He has great memories and see so much potential, but the current situation just doesn’t seem right.

Here are some of his comments:

I still check the park periodically via social media and such as I haven’t been to the park in ages… I’m hoping to go for the 2015 season!

But here’s a recap of the 2014 season:

  • In March 2014 there was a bulldozer spotted behind Friendship Cove’s area

  • Peanut and her calf from 2013 passed away during the winter 2013-2014

  • Kelowna’s 2nd calf passed away in the winter 2013-2014

  • Kiska began play sessions with toys since May-June

  • Isis, Acadia, Aurora, Skyla, Rose and Talia were pregnant this year; all have given birth to healthy calves but Talia whom is still expecting or a stillbirth occurred (unconfirmed)

  • Belyi, the park’s first beluga passed away in August

  • Rain and Charmin are the only wild caught females who haven’t gotten pregnant yet.

  • Deadmau5 letter to the park… I personally want to take over MLC in a heartbeat but I can’t 🙁

Note: These are just his observations and I have presented them as is. I do not know how accurate they are, and have not tried to confirm anything.
