Two Orcas Captured, to be shown at 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics!

THIS IS ABSOLUTE DISGUSTING!
How unbelievably cruel. Surely this must be a joke! But sadly.... no, its not, it's real!

"According to the Mirror, hunters have officially captured two wild orcas that will be kept in a “small concrete tank following a 4,614-mile flight” from Russia’s far east. The aim is to have these two orcas on display at the Sochi Dolphinarium just in time for the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics, which will begin on February 7."

  1. I despair. I think the winter olympics should be boycotted if this happens!
