The following is SeaWorld’s original statement. Their parks have been closed as of March 16, and much like Disney, they had the original intention of remaining closed through the end of the month. We now know that the closure will extend beyond that.

It was also announced today that SeaWorld will be furloughing over 90% of their employees during this closure. SeaWorld Parks and Entertainment hosts a portfolio of various theme park brands.
