THANK YOU SOOO MUCH FOR THIS MIRACLE OF SALVATION & FREEDOM FOR THIS WHALES & MARINE ANIMALS. IF I WAS A BILLIONAIRE I WOULD DONATE MOST OF MY MONEY TO HELP THIS CAUSE!! GOD BLESS ALL UR HEARTS & UR PLANS 🙏❤
I am so excited 😆. This is so awesome !!!!!!! Thank you to all the people that has worked on this project. I can not wait for the day all of the captives are FREE
I really hope one day those sanctuaries will be built. Those who've spent their whole lives in small tanks will finally experience the ocean. They'll experience tides, waves, interactions with fish and birds. And if Sea World want to restore their reputation, they should support and fund these sanctuaries. Im sure they'll be given part ownership as well which is fine as long as they promise to not breed or exploit them.
Jay And when her mother dies, the other orcas will rip the poor 56 year old to death, if she has not died if pneumonia or been hit by a boat in the meantime or starved to death from the shortage of salmon.
@@tessdurberville711 Orcas have never attacked and killed one of their own in the wild. Lolita is part of the L pod. If her mother was to die she very well might become the matriarch of that pod.
Lolita not only has a living mother, she still knows her pod's language and was also old enough that she would have been able to hunt for her food. She, I think, has the best chance of a successful reintegration into her family.
Animals, Mammals, insects and other such things do not need human interference! Places like seaworld are a death sentence. I know i would not enjoy being put in a limited living space only to be a spectacle! Freedom!!!
It is not built yet sadly. But in France I believe it was 2 Beluga whale were put is the sanctuary marking the first captive animal to be semi released
@@Beasty2023 Those belugas were from china. They were far from the first captive whales to be retired. Dolphin Project rescued 4 captive dolphins from the Melka Hotel and they are now living in a sanctuary.
The problem is no one is willing to let their whales go to one of the sanctuaries. Why would they build it if they don’t have any whales? Sea world needs to step up.
@@tessdurberville711 but some things we can change. And we should. Spread the message. Share this video w someone. Tell people the truth. And don't buy tickets to these places.
i wont have akid until they grow up in a world where whales can vocalize against the ships they get hurt by. nets are just a small part of the poaching that's happening. all of which needs solved the way us humans would deal with injustice. what we learn from them is more valuable than anything we can learn from each other, we are more alike than different
Evangelista, change IS happening, people DO recognize that these animals should NEVER have been captured for human entertainment. The public is demanding accountability and the end of captive cetaceans. We can't undo the harm that has been done, but we can change the lives of the captives for the better and completely END further capture for entertainment. Society learns and evolves. There is hope!
It's time to shut places like SeaWorld down and set them FREE the Orcas don't deserve to be in a small prison I pray 🙏 the law changes that it's illegal to keep any captive Orcas and Dolphins places like SeaWorld is animal abuse people are abusing these animals that are as smart as us may God help them and open people's eyes places that keep captive Orcas are pure animal abuse the laws need to change and protect these animals
Why put the sanctuary in nova scotia, which is pretty well boycotted by the rest of Canada, due to their barbaric seal hunt. This is such a great project, but BC would be a way better choice. Weather and tourism is also way better in BC. People in Nova Scotia are numb to animal suffering after years of glorified slaughters and eating seal burgers. They really no longer have any empathy left for marine life. Nova Scotia may have dirt cheap land available, but it seems like such a negative place to put this sanctuary. Also if any Belugas or Narwhals escape or are released, there is a chance that they could swim into the hunting grounds north of Nova Scotia. Being comfortable with humans will mean that they will be the first ones slaughtered if Natives are out hunting.
Currently they are planning on using the San Juan islands, which are in US/Canda waters but all the water around them are protected and already part of a marine sanctuary.
What's the difference between a tank and a sanctuary? They shouldn't be in our captivity at all. Release them all and whatever happens to them, happens. Is it cruel? yes. More cruel than captivity? ask the future captive marine animals that.
The people who killed Keiko were the ones who captured him in the first place. Keiko was taken from his mother, and she was killed right in front of him, but from a pod that was not studied. We had no clue which pod he was taken from, so they were unsuccessful in reuniting him with his true family. Although he died so soon after release from captivity, he had a much higher quality of life than what he had in a concrete tank.
