The Motley Crue drummer wrote a letter to the theme park accusing it of treating one of its most famous whales in a "sick and twisted" manor.
At the centre of Lee's complaint is how the park allegedly extracts sperm from the whale, named Tilikum.
"We know from SeaWorld's own director of safety (as well as videos on the web) that the way you get his sperm is by having someone get into the pool and masturbate him with a cow's vagina filled with hot water," Lee wrote, reports TMZ.
He added: "Even in my wildest days with Motley Crue, I never could've imagined something so sick and twisted."
The rocker also accused SeaWorld of keeping Tilikum in captivity to use him as its "chief sperm bank".
SeaWorld has yet to respond publicly to the letter.
