10.08.2017 – Thank you India

We had a choppy sea but during the morning both boats had these small dolphin species very much to the joy of our big and small guests. Because of the weather conditions it is not always guaranteed to go out on the ocean. It is not always guaranteed to meet dolphins. But it is definitely and always better to book a trip into nature, instead of going into dolphinaria. What’s happening there is animal suffering for the greed of gain!

Dolphins have a highly developed brain and a well-organized social structure. Meanwhile they received the rights as “Non-human persons” like in a humanitarian world. Therefore they (chartered/legal) right for life, freedom and Health has to be ensured. India took this step! As a result of this wonderful decision all construction projects of dolphinaria were abandoned. Which countries will follow?

You as well can support the rights of dolphins – Your voice counts! Check it out: http://www.cetaceanrights.org/
