Marineland of the Pacific closed its doors nearly 37 years ago, but there are lasting memories for those who worked or played there. When he was a child growing up in the South Bay, Tod Perry visited the home of Orky and Corky, a pair of killer whales that were the park's main attraction. While the popular tourist attraction in Rancho Palos Verdes closed when he was around 10 years old, he still has vivid memories of the place. 'It almost felt like the animals were part of the community, like Orky and Corky were your personal pet whales and you could go see them,' said Perry, who now resides in Long Beach.
