Mississippi officials are supporting a plan that will see dolphins imprisoned, abused at a new aquarium in the city of Gulfport. Without our help, these dolphins will die in cruel tanks after enduring a lifetime of abuse and exploitation. The dolphins need your help right now!

In Defense of Animals has campaigned for over a year to stop the city of Gulfport in Mississippi from building a brand-new dolphin prison. At a recent day of lobbying attended by local dolphin advocates, city council members and Gulfport Mayor Billy Hewes revealed that many officials support the inclusion of dolphins in the Mississippi Aquarium.

Gulfport is ignoring dolphin welfare and the best interests of the city. Once-profitable animal abusing businesses now face plummeting share prices and revenues as compassionate people shun cruel attractions that abuse animals for entertainment.

We need your support right now to ensure the U.S. moves forward instead of backward for dolphins. Don’t allow Gulfport to throw a lifeline to this dying, antiquated animal abuse industry!
