The story also tells about, the life of the Tiklikum in the SeaWorld and the secrets of the park, where it suffered several attacks from the other female whales, performed at Shamu Show, and fatally, killed two people.This production brings a lot of scientific information about the orcas, what helps us understand how much magnificent and intelligent these animals are, besides ending with the myths around the whale.
