You’re entertained for 5 minutes or less. I’m imprisoned for my whole life. Make it make sense. 💔😔 Please urge members of Congress @repkevinmullin @repadamsmith @repdwightevans @repgracenapolitano @repdonaldpaynejr @reppettersen to co sponsor the SWIMS act and help end whale and dolphin captivity. Please comment on their instagram profiles. 🗣️#emptythetanks 🎥 @bornto.bewild (**this video is of Naja, the last captive Orca in Russia. Although she doesn’t live in the US, her experience is representative of all captive orcas💔) ...

SHOCKING interview.

Meet Eduardo Albor, the president of the Dolphin Company, who owns Miami Seaquarium.

Throughout this interview it becomes clear that he does not understand how state and federal regulations work in regards to captive marine mammals nor who conducts them. He even goes as far as claiming the Mayor is lying about the violations the dolphinarium has received.

In just the past few years, Miami Seaquarium has received numerous violations and disregarded advice from veterinarians and officials, which has led to deteriorating health of many of their animals and in many cases—death. (To date, 120 dolphins and whales have died at the Miami Seaquarium)

Here are a few of the violations that the USDA found:

1. They failed to provide protection to animals from weather and direct sunlight, exposing them to harsh conditions and sunburns.
2. Dolphin enclosures were not maintained, which led to one dolphin having a 2 inch nail lodged in its throat, and another was found with a plastic zip tie, a piece of broken plastic, and a large piece of cement in its digestive tract. 
3. Black mold was found on the penguin enclosure, and even after they were notified of the issue, they failed to fix it. 
4. A dolphin was found to have multiple rib fractures. 
5. An orca was eating rotten food and her tank was found to be dirty.
6. They ignored advice from veterinarians and failed to control animals, an incident occurred in which a dolphin bit a girl’s hand during a “meet and greet” encounter.
7. They didn’t maintain enough trained workers including veterinarians. 

Eduardo Albor voiced his intent to fight the eviction in court. 

We hope that a judge will rule in favor of the animals and force Miami Seaquarium to end its abuse and mistreatment of animals once and for all.
