If you would like to be more informed about the captive dolphin and whale industry that capitalizes on their captivity, you may want to watch this international documentary movie "A Fall From Freedom." You will have a new and different perspective after watching this movie.
Thank you for taking the time to learn more about our cetacean friends.
How can you help?
Through education - in schools and in communities. Water theme parks that showcase dolphins in captivity and put up dolphin and whale shows as entertainment will continue doing what they are doing as long as they have people queuing up to buy tickets to watch these shows. We can educate these ticket buyers, mostly children whose parents take them to these shows. Show these children this video or read to them Danielle's story and ask for their teachers to further help explain the dolphins' and whales' dilemma and encourage the children to help free these dolphins by:
(1) telling their parents about what they've learnt from Danielle's story and
(2) refusing to watch a dolphin and whale show.
And trust our children to come up with their own ingenious ways to help these dolphins in captivity. They can be the new voice and we can help guide them.
