" No aquarium, no tank in a marine land, however spacious it may be, can begin to duplicate the conditions of the sea. No dolphins or marine mammals who inhabits one of those aquariums or one of those marine lands parks can be considered normal."
Jacques Yves Cousteau.
Now, here is a quote from me:
Remember this: Every time you encourage a marine park by buying a ticket to see the marine mammals captive there, or on a vacation in a resort with a swim with captive dolphins, you are contributing to their captures and helping keeping them prisoners! It is as simple as that! And yes there is still capture!

When the first page will open, click on Dolphins FAQ. You will be on the WSPA org web page, an organisation dedicated to the well-fare of all animals. Please click on all the questions and read all the answers. So, the next time you decide to visit a marine park that is exhibiting marine mammals or decide to become a paying customer at swim-with -the-dolphin dolphins program for human entertainment... you will know exactly what your decision making and your choice of spending your money is contributing to do!
Every choice you make influence the whole world around you, and demand for people to see marine mammals in captivity create the need for prisoners to be kept in a tank or confinement 1% the size of their natural habitat. So think about that the next time you are clapping your hands to a showing of their unnatural behaviours! That's your choice!
FOR MYSELF AND THE PURPOSE OF MY ART, THIS IS WHAT I DECIDED TO DO FROM NOW ON:
My choice and my way of standing up for the awareness of marine mammals in captivity is to block from my profile page all deviants whom are taking pictures in marine parks & zoos and GROUPS whom are proudly displaying them, from favouring my art or adding me to their deviants watch list.
I cannot accept to have my work mix up with peoples encouraging the captivity of animals that should be living in freedom in the ocean, where they belong, not in a fish bowl or cages!
All others DEVIANTS ARTISTS can help also by not encouraging pictures of these beautiful creatures, kept as prisoners...
The best way to commune with dolphins or other marine mammals is from the deck of a whale watch operation that follows a responsible code of conductor, better yet, from shore, where you can be sure that you're not harming them.
Now this is my choice ; what's your choice going to be?

A little info's on those white whales:
Belugas are fund in Arctic and Subarctic waters along the northern coasts of Canada, Alaska, Russia, Norway and Greenland. It is estimated that between 72,000 and 144,000 belugas lives in Canadian waters.
These animals are distributed in the Western Arctic ( Beaufort Sea ), High Arctic ( Lancaster Sound, Baffin Bay), Eastern Arctic ( Cumberland Sound and Southern Baffin, Hudson Bay, James Bay and Ungava Bay ) and in the St-Lawrence Estuary.
This is where I come from, in Quebec, and I have the privilege to be able to go observe them at the site where the St-Lawrence and the Saguenay Rivers meet, at only just about 60 kilometers from my house
SOME FACTS ABOUT DOLPHINS.
SOME FACTS ABOUT DOLPHINS!
Dolphins are well known for their intellect, their gregarious nature, their sociability and their acrobatic ability; but did you know that to prevent drowning while sleeping only half of the dolphin's brain goes to sleep while the other half remains awake so they can continue to breathe!
TREATS TO DOLPHINS: as the seas and the oceans warms up, dolphins are being seen more frequently in colder waters outside their historic ranges. Due to the rapidly rising oceans temperatures, the dolphins primary food sources are seeking deeper cooler waters. Scientists are very concerned that dolphins will have difficulty adaptin

Wonderful quote, this was beautifully journal written as well! So full of compassion and awareness! It was people like you, that spoke about the horrors of captivity and without a hateful attitude toward ignornance. That opened my eyes to how terrible captivity really is. I never really thought about it as a child and young adult, until I recently reserched captivity,(after seeing awareness art on deviant art from people like AnoOrca) and the number of premature deaths, speak for it's self.
It's wonderful that you are doing art to show people, how the wild really is a place for these animals! Keep up the great journals and beautiful art! You never know who it will impact
