The shows are being replaced with less theatrical more educational style 'shows' (this was announced months ago)

So what will they do with the Orcas. They can't put them back in the wild.

They will keep them and just keep getting as much money from them as possible. There still will be some sort of educational talk on them by the tanks.

They could relocate to them to sea pens, there are enough groups willing to fund it, but Sea World won't let that happen.

The tricks they currently do are just things they naturally do in the wild, only on command. I expect they will do similar thing but with an explanation of why they would've doing this in their natural environment. Tbh they can't release the whales and to stop working with them would be a bad , they are used to it and would get bored stupid, hopefully they will get better pools and a more natural show and their end life made a good as possible.

Like most other animals in zoos, they will keep them in their "enclosures" (=pools) for people to look at. That will include educational talks about them by the pools. You are right that they can't put them into the wild, especially as most of them have never been in the wild before.

There were plans for Seaworld to expand and 'retheme' the pools but I think they've dropped that idea now - probably due to financial losses and the fact that they will no longer be breeding (i.e. conserving) orcas in captivity from now on.
