SeaWorld Adventure Parks are located in Orlando, San Diego and San Antonio. Known for their Orca (Killer) Whale shows and most notably Shamu, SeaWorld is a water park that has one of the largest marine zoological collections in the world. Founded in 1964 by four UCLA graduates, SeaWorld was an instant success. SeaWorld got its start with 45 employees, dolphins, sea lions and two seawater aquariums. Today the park is owned by Busch Entertainment Corportation an Anheuser-Beusch Company.

If you're interested in other theme parks: Disneyland, Six Flags or Disneyworld, I wrote a few articles about them too; or check out Disney Parks, Disneyland Hotel, Disney on Ice, and Playhouse Disney. Thanks for reading!

Shamu is SeaWorld's famous Orca/Killer Whale, and "Believe" is his new show. Shamu has become a household name. He has changed our perception of Killer Whales as "man-eating" beasts to intelligent, dynamic creatures that are worthy of our conservation efforts. Shamu has been entertaining and educating crowds since the 1960s and continues to be a main draw to the SeaWorld parks.

"Believe" , Shamu's new show, mixes together the behaviors of the Orca with music, choreography, multi-media. The shows theme is based on a child's belief that he/she is connected to the killer whale. A new stadium/set is being built that includes a two story stage, a powerful waterfall, underwater cameras, and LED screens.
