SeaWorld is not only a fun place to see animals do tricks, but the training behind it is not what it seems. Nobody thinks about how much time is spent training the whales or the damage being to them. “Do not cry for me I am free now Fight for me Be our voice. Be our hope,” (Cotillard). Many of the whales should not be held captive in small tanks doing tricks just for entertainment. However, many organizations are created to voice opinions and animal captivity. The People for the Ethical…

so what’s so wrong with that now? Most people think that the Navy using dolphins and sea lions to do jobs such as hunting mines and guarding GOP yachts. They should, however, be used for these jobs because they are more capable than humans, have safer jobs than humans, and have lots of training beforehand. The government didn’t just randomly pick dolphins and sea lions; they chose them because of their abilities. Dolphins have a biological sonar, a sense that allows them to use sounds to detect…

Swimming with dolphins in captivity is exciting enough, but getting to be out in the open waters and watch wild dolphins in their natural habitat is something totally different and unique! And that’s why Dolphin World is pleased to offer the Wild Dolphin Encounter in beautiful Bimini, Bahamas. The Bahamas are a collection of nice-sized islands, with the biggest being North and South Bimini. Though technically the biggest islands, a vacation to Bimini still has a quaint and charming feel, perfect…

The Fins in this project are based on the Thresher shark. Its tail is shaped like a thresher, and the shark uses it as a weapon to stun its prey. Since this shark is an active predator, its tail should not only be used as a weapon, but also a great source of propulsion. In order to design and compare a fin to this extraordinary shark tail, a simple trapezoid was created to set a base model. Its dimensions are as follow: This fin is the base model designed to set the first data of propulsion, so…

In this study I want to tag Biggs killer whales (Orcinus orca), also known as mammal eating or transient killer whales, in the mid-Salish sea. Biggs killer whales are named after Michael Bigg, a Canadian marine biologist who is considered the founder of killer whale research (Paterson, 2002). Bigg was the first scientist to look at the differences between killer whales that preyed on fish and stayed in one home range all year and those that preyed on mammals and live in larger unknown ranges. It…

Dolphin Training People have been training dolphins to perform in movies and shows to entertain families, to help with the military, and have been trained to save more lives in open water than specially trained life savers. For more than 50 years the military has been taking the time to train dolphins. The movie industry has been training dolphins to play a role in movies and tv shows. Studies show that people could live a maximum of 10 weeks with a dolphin. There was a stunt that had to have…

Not only they are killed, but their meat is also sold in the Japanese market and given in schools, even though it contains high levels of mercury. The film The Cove uses logos, pathos and ethos to effectively persuade their audience to seek some type of action from the audience to protect the lives of dolphins and to inform people on what is going on in the town of Taiji. The film The Cove…
