Keiko's return to the wild was ripped from a Hollywood script — literally. How the five-tonne star of 1993's Free Willy made a similar journey back to open waters after millions of dollars were sunk into helping get back the whale's killer instincts. Keiko died of pneumonia in December 2003, and remains the only orca to have been reintroduced into the wild.
