Free The Epcot Dolphins?

I take back my initial thought that everything that was presented would be acknowledged instead of just whether or not the Dolphins had things floating at the top of the tank.

Think for yourselfer
Any wild animal In captivity disturbs me. I know they are treated well but it's sad to see them confined in small spaces.

Better not keep any pets.

They weren't even in there last September which made me wonder if they had died since they didn't look too happy on our trip before that one.

You can tell if they look happy? Special talent you have there Aquaman.

I hope so. I have been to dolphin santuacties before and they have lots of stimulation for them ( balls, buoys, etc...) they have none of that in WDW.
Wrong, try again. They have plenty of balls and other stimulation and training tools for them at the Seas. I have seen them every single time I visit.

I get it that people feel badly for dolphins or whales or [insert animal]. If they are endangered, we as people should do everything we can do to keep their numbers up both in the wild and in captivity.

If they are not endangered, I have a hard time distinguishing between a dolphin and a cow and a mouse and a chicken. Of that list, we eat two, we catch and kill one.

Not sure about freeing the Epcot Dolphins, but the Miami Dolphins definitely need freeing.

Oh, the Fins need sooo much more than freeing... like a coach, a QB and well, a team. They've not been the same since the Robbie family sold the team. Actually, they've not won an AFC championship or SB since Shula retired. But the '72 team still holds that record.
I hate the new logo, btw.

I always thought that was a weird ride "okay kids that one swimming over there is what you are going to eat for dinner"...


Because just like the tomatoes growing on the tomato tree, they are raised for food. Children need to learn that food comes from somewhere before it hits the shelves at Publix.

I worry when people start to anthropomorphize other animals. Because that's when we get "purse" dogs dressed in pink dresses with bows in their fur and painted claws. Because unless that animal's brain has a limbic system similar to a human brain, the emotions that animal feels are limited, if any.

I'm sorry I have to disagree with you. I see my dog smile, cry, get nervous, get excited, get angry, etc... I've been to zoos where the animals are obviously depressed. Animals have feelings, even though they may not be as complex as humans.

They pace back and forth. Having pets is different. My dog is from a puppy mill, she is so much happier now. I don't put her on display and have people tapping her glass. Your argument is invalid.
