The exploitation of catching beluga whales, killer whales, and dolphins for entertainment purposes has sparked widespread condemnation and calls for change.
Many countries have already ceased this practice due to the inherent cruelty involved. When young cetaceans are captured, their families often suffer tragic consequences, with many dying in futile attempts to save their babies. The captured animals themselves frequently succumb to stress and illness during transportation, unable to adapt to the harsh conditions of captivity.
Creating artificial environments that can adequately accommodate the complex needs of these highly intelligent creatures is impossible. In the wild, cetaceans swim tens of kilometers a day and dive to great depths, behaviors that simply cannot be replicated in captivity. Confinement in corrosive chlorinated water, forced training through hunger, and the inability to engage in natural social interactions lead to a shortened lifespan for whales and dolphins in captivity.
The demand for live cetaceans persists despite the high mortality rates, perpetuating the cycle of exploitation. These sentient beings suffer immensely from the loss of their families and natural habitats, a form of emotional distress that transcends human comprehension. Tragic accounts of self-harm and suicide among captive cetaceans, such as banging their heads against pool walls or voluntarily ceasing to breathe, have been well-documented.
The harrowing tale of the notorious whale prison in Primorye serves as a stark reminder of the rampant illegal capture and trade of these magnificent creatures. As advocates for animal welfare, it is crucial to reject and denounce any form of cruelty towards animals. Instead, let us choose animal-free entertainment options that respect and honor the inherent dignity of all living beings. В мире животных
