Early this morning, the world was saddened by the news that Tilikum of Blackfish passed away.
Trendsetter is working with the baby product company, Munchkin Inc. who started an #OrcasLiveInOceans initiative — After 10 years of making a toy orca whale within their bath toy set, they have decided to put their principles before their profit. They are removing the Orca from their top-selling Sea Squirt Bath Toy Collection.
Within hours of death Tilikum’s passing, Trendsetter secured a spot on TMZ Live for Munchkin Inc. T CEO, Steven Dunn. Steven Dunn, has offered $1,000,000 to fund an orca ocean sanctuary and had asked that Tilikum be released to this sanctuary.
In honor of Tilikum, 100% of proceeds from www.munchkin.com will go to the Whale Sanctuary Project through January 9, 2017.
