Animal Rescue & Rehabilitation
Our rescue teams are on call 24/7, 365 days a year, assisting animals that are orphaned, ill, injured or in need of expert care.
Our goal is to successfully rehabilitate animals for return to the wild. The small percentage of animals whose injuries are too debilitating to release, as deemed by the government, are given lifelong care.

The SeaWorld Parks operate under the authority of multiple government agencies and are regularly inspected for compliance with federal and state law.
SeaWorld Orlando, Discovery Cove and Busch Gardens Tampa Bay are all certified humane by American Humane’s Humane Conservation program and accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums and the Alliance of Marine Mammal Parks and Aquariums. Accredited and certified zoos and aquariums undergo a rigorous review that includes a detailed application as well as a multiple day on-site inspection by a team of experts from around the country.
