Keep dolphins free !






















Please sign our petition in cooperation with Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society (WDCS) and Marine Connection to stop dolphinariums in Egypt. This cruel industry is the main reason, why massiv annual dolphin slaughters, especially in Japan, can still be financed.

Four bottlenose dolphins from Japan have recently been discovered in a 9mx9m pool in Hurghada, where they are kept for quarantine before they will be sent to Sharm El Sheik's dolphinarium "Dolphina".
The current living conditions are unacceptable! Not only the small size of the pool but also the water conditions are below any standard!
We want to ban the profit-oriented industry of dolphinariums and therefore need your help.

With your signature on our petition adressed to the Ministry of State for Environmental Affairs and the Ministry of Agriculture and Land Reclamation, you will help us putting an end to an industry, which never has been and never will be focused on the well-being of the dolphins.

We kindly ask you to spread to word and raise awareness that dolphins have not been created to live in captivity! Once a dolphin is captured there is almost no chance to relocate it back into the ocean and it is doomed to a life of imprisonment.

Please, find our petition here:
