http://ga0.org/campaign/solomonRécement 20 dauphins ont été capturés par les îles Salomon pour satisfaire les demandes croissantes des parcs d'amusements avec dauphins captifs.
L'association IDA ne sait pas encore ou vont être envoyés ces vingt dauphins, mais elle nous propose de protester au-prés du premier ministre de Salomon pour qu'il interdise les exportations de dauphins vers des parcs d'attractions et de les mettre en liberté..

Sujet : Uphold the ban on dolphin export
amaesulia@pmc.gov.sbDear Prime Minister of the Salomon islands,
I am saddened to learn that as many as twenty dolphin were recently captured in the Solomon Islands who could be sent to amusement parks. The capture of wild dolphins and whales is violent, cruel, and disruptive to entire communities of cetaceans and the ecosystems in which they live. One capture method involves chasing dolphins to the point of exhaustion with high-speed boats. The dolphins are then netted and dragged aboard. Undesirable dolphins (the old, the very young, the weak, injured or sick) are thrown back to the sea, while the young, healthy specimens that meet aquarium specifications are kept for sale and transport.
Another method also involves chasing the animals with boats and herding them into enclosed bays or makeshift sea pens, where they are trapped and frequently separated from family members. (Dolphins and whales live in tightly knit social units, known as pods. In the case of orca whales, the pods stay together for life.) Please do the right thing and uphold the ban on dolphin exports.
Thnak you for your time and attention,
Sincerely,
