There has only been one Shamu in the SeaWorld history. The original Shamu died 7/9/71. Since then, there has been no new "Shamu."
The three SeaWorld parks claim every whale there to be "Shamu"
SeaWorld San Diego:
Corky2
Kasatka
Ulises
Orkid
Sumar
Nakai
Kalia
SeaWorld Orlando:
Katina
Tillikum
Kalina
Kayla
Taima
Takara
Trua
Nalanie
Malia
SeaWorld San Antonio:
Kyoquot
Keet
Unna
Tuar
Halyn
Those are the names of all the orcas at the 3 SeaWorld parks :) I wish the original Shamu was still alive, but sadly she only survived 6 years in captivity.
Corky 2 (my fav orca! lol!), located at SeaWorld San Diego, is the oldest orca in captivity alive. She is considered the "Shamu" to all three parks, because she acts like the original Shamu.
"Shamu" is now just a stage name at the "Shamu" shows
