Commenters blame Marineland ownership for the deaths
Reddit users discussed the deaths, with one criticizing the lack of accountability for Marineland's owners and another describing standard veterinary euthanasia protocols in the context of the losses.
“I really hate that there are no consequences for the evil owners who caused this. And I bet they're leaving this whole situation with bags of money on top of it all.”
