Victoria Braithwaite's Hookedth

By discussing Ric’s many years of work with capturing and training dolphins, the movie gives the impression that he is an expert in his field. By giving Ric the status as an expert, the audience is given the idea that the statements Ric makes about how dolphins are self-aware and his activist work Ric does can be trusted. “Dolphins are free range and intelligent animals that belong in the ocean, not playing the clown in our human schemes” Ric says as to simplify his understanding of the creature he helps. Through this new found trust and the presentation of facts from an expert, people are inspired to change the morally incorrect industry. As a way to play off of the new desire to help, the movie presents an emotionally stimulating event that Ric experienced in his

Sea World rebuttal was not considered in the documentary of “Blackfish” which clearly defines the bias views of the creator. So without choice, viewers are marked to take the side of the creator or leave the documentary feeling like a kid in a fine china shop, unable to touch or lose your balance for fear of shattering the look of the shop. Unfortunately, the problem with animal activist groups is that they force their religious views of animals on others with no other biases to consider. Hence, their real arguments are skewed and we are unable to clearly see the real poignant side without the opinions.

In “Joyas Voladoras”, Brian Doyle indicates that the heart is the emotional center of life that controls feeling that cannot be hidden Hiding the emotions created by the heart can set up a dull future. Doyle uses the humming bird’s need for sweets to portray the idea of the necessary emotions of life. When talking about the humming bird’s risks, Doyle writes,”If they do not soon find that which is sweet, their hearts grow cold, and they cease to be.” The heart needs love and emotions in order to function properly.

I am going to argue in support of Peter Singer’s claims against speciesism. It is right to claim that human suffering and animal suffering should be given equal considerations. Both humans and nonhuman species suffer both physically and emotionally and both deserve equal considerations on the basis of morality.

The claim further argues that said stress can be directly blamed for the violent outbursts of the orcas against the training staff. When whales are taken away from their families in the wild waters, they grieve the pain and suffering that is associated with that parting, thus making the whales an emotional time bomb. The documentary provides grounds to argue that orcas suffer the emotional repercussions of separation, much like humans do by with the fact that scientists have proven them to be conscious of human-like relationships and feelings via MRI’s. Moreover, included in this documentary was a commercial of a killer whale giving birth to baby Kalina. Much like our society, killer whales value their relationships with their offspring. Once Kalina was taken from her mother, Katina, is shown being immobile in the corner of the tank, audibly screeching and crying. Being able to see and hear the tragic response of the mother makes the audience empathize with the orca and want to cry for her. Incorporating this event shows how holding orcas in captivity can negatively affect them psychologically. This vivid scene gives the audience the ability to sympathize on a personal level with a mammal other than

Director Gabriela Cowperthwaite in the documentary, Blackfish (2013), argues that captivity triggers aggression in killer whales. Cowperthwaite supports her argument by demonstrating shocking footage and emotional interviews to present a convincing case against keeping these animals in captivity and for human entertainment. The author’s purpose is to show the problems that are caused by captivity in order to aware the audience that keeping killer whales in captivity affects their behavior mentally and physically. The author writes in resentful tone to Sea World, the people who visited Sea World, and those who were present during the killer whale incident. Gabriela Cowperthwaite argues that keeping killer whales in captivity at SeaWorld affects their mentality due to how they are being treated. She makes this argument by applying pathos, ethos, and logos.

In the documentary “Blackfish,” there are rhetorical devices that are used to send off different thoughts about orca whales being held in captivity in such a limited space. Many of these devices try to give off certain feelings to the emotions and the mind through different people’s opinions. A device that is most used throughout this documentary is logos, meaning more facts are included and convincing the audience to pick more of one side than another. Shown through the documentary, many points from different people are told and give off plenty of emotions for the viewers that watch the documentary. Many facts are given off throughout this whole documentary, however the way that the people say it gives it more of two aspects that

Walker incorporates in her argument the similarities between her emotions as a human, and the emotions of animals.
