    Female host drowned after falling into dolphin pool while teasing dolphins; seal died after swallowing visitor objects

    In 2002, the seal Congcong died after about 1 kg of foreign objects thrown by visitors, including cloth dolls and gloves, blocked its digestive tract; the venue suspended seal performances. In January 2014, a 21-year-old female host at the venue accidentally fell into the pool while teasing a dolphin during a performance and drowned; the venue said it would review management shortcomings and bear liability according to law. No public penalty result was seen.
