As of the time of this article’s publication, the footage of Kiska Demers posted on Twitter in September has been viewed almost 800,000 times. Organizations such as the Whale Sanctuary Project (WSP) are looking to change that. Marineland and other parks often move their animals around the world successfully, Giles, the wild orca researcher, points out. “What’s best for Kiska is still unknown, because a proper assessment and determination of what’s best for her has to be made by professionals outside of Marineland,” Demers said. The Whale Sanctuary Project hopes to see the facility operational by the end of 2022 or in early 2023.
