The future of two killer whales, Wikie and Keijo, is uncertain after the closure of Marineland Antibes in France due to new animal welfare laws. The French government has blocked proposals to rehome them, including a controversial deal to Japan. Experts argue that releasing them into the wild is unsuitable as they were born in captivity. Alternatives include sending them to a Spanish marine zoo, Loro Parque, which has faced criticism for orca deaths. Campaigners advocate for a sanctuary in Nova Scotia, emphasizing the need for humane treatment and care for the whales.
