Over the course of two decades, John Hargrove worked with 20 different whales on two continents and at two of SeaWorld’s U.S. facilities. For Hargrove, becoming an orca trainer fulfilled a childhood dream. However, as his experience with the whales deepened, Hargrove came to doubt that their needs could ever be met in captivity. When two fellow trainers were killed by orcas in marine parks, Hargrove decided that SeaWorld’s wildly popular programs were both detrimental to the whales and ultimately unsafe for trainers.
After leaving SeaWorld, Hargrove became one of the stars of the controversial documentary Blackfish. The outcry over the treatment of SeaWorld’s orca has now expanded beyond the outlines sketched by the award-winning documentary, with Hargrove contributing his expertise to an advocacy movement that is convincing both federal and state governments to act.
In Beneath the Surface, Hargrove paints a compelling portrait of these highly intelligent and social creatures, including his favorite whales Takara and her mother Kasatka, two of the most dominant orcas in SeaWorld. And he includes vibrant descriptions of the lives of orcas in the wild, contrasting their freedom in the ocean with their lives in SeaWorld.
Hargrove’s journey is one that humanity has just begun to take - toward the realization that the relationship between the human and animal worlds must be radically rethought.

Keiko was already dying but she died free not like all the others in slavery at Sea world and other places around the world, She is the only released Orca to die anyway, learn your facts before flapping your lips

Thank you so much!
Im so thankful that the atrocities of SeaWorld (at least in San Diego) have been shared with the world, and the whales are no longer living in those prisons of servitude.
I spent 3 months in a back and forth chat with a staff member of SW, and let me tell you, that company has absolutely no remorse, and in-fact, still clings to the notion that they’ve done nothing wrong! It’s despicable.
Great book!!!!! Blackfish the film is also great.
