The theory presented in this writing, "SeaWorld Absolved," about the death of SeaWorld trainer, Dawn Brancheau, is in contrast to the theory presented in the film, "Blackfish," which states that the reason for the attack on Mrs. Brancheau by the orca, Tilikum, was due to Tilikum's hard, long, life in captivity that turned him into a "killer" whale. Instead, the theory of this writing holds that the attack on Dawn Brancheau was due to a behavior unknown at the time of the attack, a behavior to be called "teeth baring," that orcas use as a call for their territorial privacy, a warning that they are being pushed to a point that they are demanding their privacy. It is this teeth baring behavior that Tilikum does at Mrs. Brancheau just prior to his attack on her, and Mrs. Brancheau accidentally aggravating this otherwise behavior of warning, due to her absence of knowledge about this display, into the next level of aggression for the whale, which resulted in Mrs. Brancheau's death. As this behavior was unknown until the time of this writing, then this lack of knowledge not only explains how the death of Mrs. Brancheau occurred, but this same lack of knowledge about this behavior also, necessarily, absolves SeaWorld, releases SeaWorld, from any condemnation related to this whale's attack on their trainer, Dawn Brancheau.
