The Closing of Marineland

How many times have we seen the Marineland story before? Corporate greed steals into our community, paves its way with a Tarmac of lies, whisks away that which it considers of value and abandons the rest to the poor, trusting souls who believed the lies in the first place. And as an added bonus, several innocent animals lost their lives and several more are doomed to much shorter life spans if the new owners keep their record of killer-whale “turnover” intact.

When William Jovanovich sold his soul to the demon of commerce, the demon received nothing of value.
