The Whales

More than 3,000 whales and dolphins are in captivity around the world. All of them are individuals with unique personalities. All of them need to be retired to sanctuaries. They include 60 orcas and more than 300 belugas at marine parks and aquariums, along with “Dolphin-Assisted Therapy” and “Swim-with-Dolphins” programs at resorts. Here are some of their bios:
