World Aquatic Animal Day – Special Event

At this special event from the Lewis & Clark Center for Animal Law, Dr. Lori Marino will talk about The Whale Sanctuary Project – Creating A New Future for Captive Cetaceans.

Dr. Marino will discuss the growing evidence for poor health and well-being in captive cetaceans and why she founded the Whale Sanctuary Project as an alternative to concrete tanks in entertainment parks.

She will also explain the difference between an authentic sanctuary and places that just call themselves sanctuaries.

And then she’ll talk about the beluga and orca sanctuary being created in Nova Scotia and why cetacean sanctuaries are the way of the future.
