What is the oldest killer whale in captivity?

The oldest killer whale in captivity was Kasatka, also known as "Kiska." She was born in the wild in 1972 and captured in 1978. She died in December 2022 at the age of 51.

It's important to note that while Kasatka lived a long time in captivity, this is not necessarily indicative of a healthy or happy life. Many factors contribute to the lifespan of captive orcas, and it's important to consider the ethical implications of keeping these highly intelligent and social animals in confined environments.
