Blackfish was released in 2013 and revealed the story of Tilikum, a performing whale that killed several people while in captivity. It exposed the reality of animals in captivity at parks such as SeaWorld and had a huge effect on the perception of Marine Parks.
Two years on - SeaWorld is struggling and has reported a 84% drop in profits! SeaWorld referred to 'brand challenges' when discussing the figures which included a huge drop in attendance rates.
The news of the drop in attendance and profits has spread across the world with publications like The Guardian and TIME discussing the Blackfish effect.
