Well it's happened again, someone started making more "Free the prisoners" comments and slammed the park agian. 2nd time I've fixed that up. I did however feel that the Zoocheck link was fair enough to leave available. Perhaps I'm wrong in thinking that.

I'm going to see what I can dig up on Marineland's history (I'm local), and perhaps make this page a little less "Bland" :) .

It looks OK but could be better, I'll do more work on it soon. Add or change whatever you think is appropriate

Some animal rights person made some slams on the park. Fair to say that's not what this page should be about. Also corrected the comments about Dragon Mountain being the largest coaster in the world. Althuogh the web sites still makes this statement it is false.

-Removed opinionated statements regarding animals in captivity -Redefined the park in the first sentence. A water park, at least in the United States, implies water rides for people, and pools, and possibly a beach. This park is a themed amusement park and animal exhibition park. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Stevevance (talkcontribs) .

[edit] how about some critisism

This is the park that allowed the whale that played willy to get lesions and suffere poor health while at marineland —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Brandonhard (talkcontribs) 04:23, 27 December 2006 (UTC).

[edit] Park's future

It has been quite sometime since I've visited the Marineland Wiki page. The last time I was here I noticed there was a brief about the park possibly closing. I see it is no longer on the page. Can someone tell me if Marineland is no longer in jeopardy of shutting down? With the expanions planned, it seems they're heading in the right direction.

I'm from Pennsylvania, went to college in Erie and fell in love with the park based on its commercials (lame I know). I've never been to Marineland but want to so badly! --Write On 1983 18:27, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

As far as I know, the park was never going to be closing (except portions of it being closed for upgrades briefly). That was just something that somebody added here, which was incorrect. It was removed once somebody noticed that it was here, not because the status had changed but simply because it was wrong to start with. --Maelwys 19:56, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
Oh. That's great news, then. I've since moved away from Erie and will miss the commercials.  :) Thanks for the information! --Write On 1983 00:39, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
