The killer whale responsible for the death of a trainer during a live show is suffering from a bacterial infection that could eventually kill him, SeaWorld officials say.
The infection in Tilikum's lungs has been resistant to treatment so far, the Florida theme park said.
The orca - which has been at SeaWorld in Orlando for 23 years - is lethargic and veterinarians and trainers are attempting to manage the infection and make sure he is
comfortable.
