World Day for Captive Dolphins takes place on July 4th every year to commemorate the 3,000+ dolphins living in captivity worldwide, as well as those that continue to be taken from the wild for public entertainment.
Confined in concrete tanks or sea pens, captive dolphins lead unnatural lives and are deprived of everything they need to thrive, and this is why Marine Connection continue raising awareness about this cruelty, which must be phased out to ensure the current generation of dolphins is the last held in captivity for public display.
