PETA Becomes Part Owner of SeaWorld

Written by Michelle Kretzer | April 19, 2013

When SeaWorld decided to offer up 20 million shares of common stock in an initial public offering, no one expected PETA to be one of the first in line to buy.

But Wall Street was in for a surprise. We quickly purchased the smallest number of shares necessary to give us the right to attend and speak at annual meetings and to submit shareholder resolutions asking for policy changes. Our first order of business as part owners of SeaWorld? Getting the orcas out — including Corky, who has been enslaved by SeaWorld for 44 years.
