another person who thinks dolphins love to swim miles and miles a day. They do that, because they fight for life as they hunt for food.

dolphins are perfectly fine in good dolphinariums. But of course, anti-dolphinarium propaganda brainwashed many people.

I read up on it some more and ok your right there isn't much evidence that dolphins get depressed in tanks but whales are known to jump out or beat their poor heads on walls. I call that depression.

They do get depressed. Killer whales/Orca whales (which belong to the dolphin family) have been known to get so depressed in captivity they kill themselves. Yes, they actually commit suicide, look up Hugo the whale. No animal like this should be in captivity, the only time they should be in captivity is if they are unable to be released into the wild or if they are getting treated for an injury or illness and will later be released.

By supporting whales and dolphins in captivity (by going places that have them like Seaworld etc.) you are supporting the barbaric dolphin hunts in Taiji and many other countries.

It's just how I feel about the topic.
