Pledge to Be A Dolphin Defender
Pledge to Be A Dolphin Defender
Dolphins in captivity are unable to thrive in the artificial environments provided by zoos, aquariums, and marine parks around the world. These intelligent and incredibly social individuals suffer greatly from capture to transport to a lifelong existence in tanks 200,000 times smaller than the size of their natural home range.
Not only are the largest tanks inadequate compared to a dolphin’s natural habitat, animals in captivity suffer from a huge range of health issues, including but not limited to: extreme stress, neurotic behaviors, and abnormal levels of aggression.
You have the power to change this.
By pledging to become a World Animal Protection Dolphin Defender, you are taking a stand for every dolphin in captivity by:
- Urging travel companies to remove wildlife performances
- Removing support for companies that hold dolphins in captivity
- Supporting only ethical viewing of dolphins in the wild
- Never taking a photo, watching a show, or swimming with captive dolphins
Take the Dolphin Defender pledge and urge family and friends to do the same.
