SeaWorld San Diego to Phase Out Killer Whale Shows

SeaWorld San Diego announced this week that it will put an end to its Shamu shows in the coming year. The park will not be getting rid of the whales, however, but it'll be adding a new exhibit that showcases the animals' natural habitat in an informative setting rather than have them on display to perform tricks.

This new move for SeaWorld comes after declining ticket sales, most likely as a result of the 2013 documentary Blackfish, which outlined the controversy surrounding keeping killer whales in captivity. The movie, coupled with public outcry from organizations like PETA and various celebrities, have become hard for SeaWorld to ignore. Just this past Summer, during a concert in San Diego, One Direction's Harry Styles asked the audience if they liked dolphins and proceeded to say, "Don't go to SeaWorld," and PETA has been and continues to call for the parks to build sanctuaries for the animals and put a stop to the breeding.

"I'm a little surprised that they were open to pulling the plug on the orca show, but I think it's smart and I think it shows that the new management team is willing to put everything on the table and tackle some of the taboos that the prior team was unwilling to address," said James Hardiman, an analyst who covers SeaWorld for Wedbush Securities, to the San Diego Union-Tribune.

There's no word yet on whether or not the other SeaWorld parks will follow suit.

Do You Have the Safest Dog Crate For Your Car?

With the Winter holidays on the horizon, many families are making travel plans to visit their loved ones, and that includes packing up pets for car trips. There's more to bringing your cat or dog along in the car than just strapping them in, though, and Subaru and the Center For Pet Safety recently completed a test on various pet-travel-related products to prove just that.

According to the study, done over the course of four years, the best crate for any pet is the Gunner Kennel. It's structurally sound, so it won't move around in the car, and provides a safe space for your pet during the ride.

"Many consider their pets much more than just a pet; they are members of their family. While pet parents take necessary steps to ensure their pets are safe at home, most are unaware of essential safety measures needed to protect both drivers and their four-legged friends when traveling with them in a vehicle," said Michael McHale, Subaru's director of corporate communications.

10 Fun Facts About Guinea Pigs

There's more to pets than just cats and dogs, am I right? There are also plenty of furry, feathery, and scaly creatures owned and loved by people everywhere. One of my favorite little guys is the guinea pig, which I always wanted as a child. They're big enough that they are hard to lose (unlike hamsters and gerbils) but still small enough for young hands to hold. If you're considering adopting a guinea pig yourself — or you already have one and want to know more about them — check out these fun facts about the furry creatures that aren't even pigs at all!

Guinea pigs purr like cats when they're happy.
Sows (female guinea pigs) are pregnant for 70 days before having their babies.
Guinea pigs have four toes on each of their front feet and three toes on each of the back feet.
They can live up to eight years, but the longest-living guinea pig on record made it to 15 years.
Guinea pigs enjoy the shade because they can't sweat to regulate their body temperature in the heat.
Guinea pigs' teeth never stop growing! They constantly have to grind them down on toys or other things.
They are very clean animals because they spend a lot of time grooming themselves and others.
They are incredibly social animals and want to spend time with you. They like to play and be held, but only if you're gentle!
Guinea pigs aren't even pigs! They aren't related to the pig family at all; they're actually just rodents.
Guinea pigs are completely domesticated animals and do not naturally exist in the wild.
