OK, Who Had Keiko In The Dead Pool?
Keiko, the killer whale star of the Free Willy movies, has been buried in a secret ceremony in Norway. The six-ton whale died on Friday from suspected pneumonia in the Norwegian bay where he had been living out his days since his release from captivity. Keiko, who was about 26, was buried in a pasture near to the bay where he had attracted many tourists to visit. "We wanted to let him be at peace," said Dane Richards, one of his carers. "He’s free now and in the wild."
Er, no, he’s rotting under a cow pasture. If you wanted to return him to the wild, you would have buried him at sea. But, then you wouldn’t have had any place to hold pilgrimages to.
