Killer Whale

The news about the death of the trainer at Seaworld was shocking. Killed by a killer whale. Yes, you have to remember that animals such as that are wild, and they are just acting out their nature. But still shocking as it took place at Seaworld, with people watching, and the trainer had worked with the whale for a long time. Just doesn't seem like something like that would happen--so sudden and swift. It reminds me of the death of the woman at the Elephant Sanctuary in Hohenwald, TN. The elephant knocked her down and stepped on her in a split second. So hard to come to grips with.
