Marketing of a failed Sea World stock.

That would prove a challenge. The planning for that event should go along with the establishment of any trust fund to support these mammals to the end of their lives. But, it is doable.

First hold a garage sale of any items not needed by a benevolent enterprise. Things like the screens and projectors can be sold. Transportation capacity would have to be considered important. But, the monies raised from selling commercial equipment and the outsourcing of commercial merchandise provided by leases to those willing to respect the species can be part of the plan.

Eventually, the property itself can be sold as the numbers of individuals falls with time. The entertainment folks are needed and the only staff required would be those that competently care for them and speakers for tours of the property.

The educational quality of the enterprise would be the viability of such a purchase. Scientists can consult to discern which individuals if any can be introduced to the wild. That is an expensive proposition with marine mammals, but, might be okay for seals and dolphins. I can only guess and it would need the opinion of professionals, both legally and ethically.  

The idea is to close the properties and end the stress and cruelty of these animals. Those vacationing to Orlando would consider a stop at a modified Sea World realizing the animals were living the best lives they can post commercialization. There would opportunities for non-profits to support this type of outcome.

It is substantial challenge, but, I am confident if the people worried about these animals can bring an endangered status to them, they can do anything.
