Alexis Martinez, 29, had worked with orcas for three years at Loro Parque. His partner Estefanía Luis Rodriguez, described the animal lover as “handsome, generous, and funny“. She revealed that Martinez had expressed concerns over his work at Orca Ocean. Just weeks before his death, he was saying the killer whales were becoming disobedient, disruptive, and aggressive. Initially, the park called his death an unfortunate accident and stated his body showed no sign of violence until the autopsy report included ripped organs, a crushed chest, and bite marks.
Keto, a 6,600lb male, had never seen the ocean, being born in captivity in 1995 in a SeaWorld park. He’s performed in parks in Ohio, Texas, San Diego, and the Canary Islands. It was during his third year at Loro Parque’s Orca Ocean that the incident took place. Keto was one of four orcas sent from SeaWorld on loan to Loro Parque.
