SeaWorld San Diego is located in America, California. It is the home of one of the most famous SeaWorld captive orca that ever lived...Shamu*! That was when the whole Shamu stage name thing started. But the 7 orcas that live there now are called Corky, Ulises, Kasatka, Orkid, Spalsh, Sumar and Nakai. The other orcas that used to live in SeaWorld San Diego are called Shamu*, Kandu*, Kilroy*, Orky 2*, Nootka*, Winston*, Kona*, Kandu 3*, Canuck*, Frankie*, Canuck 2*, Kandu 5* but they are now sadly dead.
