i want to get this right, were found to be in violation of the marine mammal protection act back in 1999 for releasing 2 dolphins who later died. how do you defend yourself against that? well, you could read to free a dolphin. you can find it online. it s hard to capsulize that. no, they didn t die. they were set free. two navy dolphins. that s what you re saying should happen with all these animals, they should eventually be re-habituated and sent back into the wild? no, i m not saying that. i m saying that every orca and every dolphin in a concrete box can be taken to a more natural environment like a large sea n pen, for example, where they can experience the natural rhythms of the sea, the tides and the currents and retired. and get involved in birth control. there isn t any reason a dolphin should be born in a concrete box simply to do tricks for us. that does not translate into conservation. rick o barry, i appreciate your time tonight.
