SeaWorld Death Leveraged For Animal Cruelty Campaign

In a morbid bid to capitalize on the SeaWorld tragedy, the World Society for Protection of Animals has hired Work Club to create a new campaign to dissuade British tourists from patronizing “cruel” attractions while on vacation. In other words, don’t go to SeaWorld.

“Our aim is to reduce the economic viability of tourist attractions that rely on animal cruelty to generate revenue from British tourists,” said WSPA UK’s Director, Suzi Morris.

All well and good but your timing is a bit questionable, Suzi.
