Keiko, the movie star of Free Willy (1993), did more than just play out a role. He portrayed compassion and the might of wildlife conservation. The performances he gave as Willy the Whale, who escapes from prison to return to his free life in the wild, struck a chord within everyone's heart. Keiko's story was more than that of the film. Having played his role in the movie, efforts were actually made to release him to the wild, thus making Keiko one of the most celebrated and impactful animal actors of all time.
