PETA, meanwhile, pushed back against the adâs conclusions, citing the average age of whales that have died since 1965. According to PETAâs documentation of captive whale deaths, the average age of death is 12 years old for SeaWorldâs female orcas -- which are expected to survive in the wild for about 50 years. For males -- which are expected to survive in the wild for 30 years -- the average age of death is 16. SeaWorld currently has in its care several whales in their 30s and one in its 40s. Keeping whales in captivity is a complicated issue, and the critical 2013 documentary Blackfish has brought more attention to it.
