Okay... couple of points here...
First... Killer Whale. Was this not enough of a warning? (Yes, I know, they don't usually kill people, but how many experiments are there in allowing whales to try to kill people?)
Second... THIRD time this guy was involved in killing someone? THIRD time?
After the FIRST time, you free Willy, okay?
Totally feel bad for the family involved and for the people who had to witness this, but this certainly sounds like something that falls under the 'preventable' category.
When our cute lil betta Fingon decided to kill a pair of swordtails, and take bites out of other fish, we didn't give him a third chance or a second chance, we pulled his ass out of the tank and put him into solitary confinement, where he gnashes his teeth at me daily, and I'm certainly not going to shove my hand in to pet him, y'know? He's mean, yes, he kills stuff, yes, but I'm not saying kill the whale, I'm just saying, it might be time for either retirement to an aquarium or off to the big blue sea.
That's all.
