January 31, 2012 | Seaworld Orlando is moving forward after the death of an Orca trainer in 2010. Three new expansions are in the works, and an ongoing OSHA case could change how Seaworld operates with its famed Killer Whales. Intersection host Mark Simpson talks with author David Kirby about his book, "Death at Seaworld: Shamu and the Dark Side of Killer Whales in Captivity."
