Whale Prison

The whale is the largest sea animal in the ocean. When fishermen catch a whale, they quickly take it to an aquarium because if they move slowly, the whale might die on the way. If they can safely bring the whale to an aquarium quickly, it might live another ten years. However, since the whale has been accustomed to living its life in the vast ocean since birth, it is a wonder how it can survive in the swimming pool of an aquarium for another ten years or more.
The trainer's wisdom plays a crucial role in this. The trainer trains the whale to jump every day, and only feeds it after the jump. The whale becomes exhausted after jumping and sleeps in the pool, unmoving. Gradually, the whale gets accustomed to living in a small pool for another ten years or more. Humans and animals can live their lives if they can change their habits.
