Keto the killer whale, who was born in 1995, has spent the entirety of his life in captivity.
He’s never swum in the ocean and instead, spends his days entertaining hundreds of people at a water park in Tenerife.
His mother, Kalina, or ‘Baby Shamu,’ was the first orca to be born in a SeaWorld theme park.
Over the years, Keto has fathered three calves of his own: Adán, Victoria, and Ula.
He’s also traveled the world performing, having appeared at water parks in San Diego, Ohio, and Texas, before moving to the Canary Islands.
Devastatingly, after Keto’s final move, he carried out a horrific attack on a trainer.
Alexis Martínez, who was an experienced trainer, was described as ‘handsome, generous, and funny’ by his girlfriend.
The 29-year-old worked with animals at Loro Parque in Tenerife and was used to working with such gigantic predators.
