Another beluga whale has died at Marineland and four years into a provincial probe, Ontario’s solicitor general is saying little about the investigation’s progress.
Good investigations take more than a week and certainly won’t rely primarily on employee testimony. If things are as bad as they say, it’ll come out in things like maintenance logs, environmental testing, animal health records etc.
The issue is that the animals there may not have the leisure to wait for the completion of a proper probe. The balance between due diligence and alleviating the suffering of these animals may be tilted in the wrong direction in this particular case.
