Gender: MalePod: N/APlace of Capture: N/ADate of Capture: September 2013Age at Capture: Approx. 8 yearsCurrent Location: Chimelong Ocean Kingdom, ChinaSometime in September 2013, a group of about 3 Orca were captured. They were transferred to the Adaptation Center in Livadia near Nakhodka, Russia where they met Narnia, a female captured in 2012.The new captives refused to eat, but were eventually coaxed into it when Narnia began offering them her fish. Narnia remained with the new whales until she and a young male were transferred to the Moscow Dolphinarium & Aquarium in December 2013.In January of 2014, the 8 year old male was transferred to Chimelong Ocean Kingdom in China with an 4 year old female.Today, this male is reported to still be at Chimelong with 3 other Orca, but no other information has been made public, nor are the whales on public display.x | x -- source link
