good.
now, need others on board.

For anyone who might be interested... a handful of U.S.locations for the world wide Empty the Tanks protest next weekend:

SeaWorld San Diego
SeaWorld San Antonio
SeaWorld Orlando
Marineland Canada
Miami Seaquarium
Georgia Aquarium
National Aquarium (Baltimore)
SeaWorld Australia
Shedd Aquarium (Chicago)

Is there anything near you Sighty? Danzig?

Hope so. :)

i'd have to think the closest for me would be new orleans, san antonio. i don't know of an aquarium in little rock.
why are they protesting at aquariums? the one we went to in atlanta seemed more interested in helping preserve endangered species and helping with rescue and rehab.
sea worlds on the other hand.....

Yeah some are about rescue and rehab. I think it makes sense, in an effort to raise awareness (and to send a message) to stage protests/ educational events at the aquariums as well as the horrible places where these animals are exploited and abused.

They should do what the rhino people are planning and what walk for farm animals does and stage a sleep in / virtual walk for people out of the area. :)

That is really incredible. While technically they can get in trouble for that, hopefully they don't.

Georgia Aquarium Application to Import 18 Beluga Whales

DENIED

http://www.nmfs.noaa.gov/pr/permits/...um_belugas.htm

:tro: Georgia Aquarium does a lot of good things for rescue and rehab, but after reading the entire proposal there was no way I could personally support them.

The continuing saga of the 18 whales...

C'mon Mr. Putin... step in.

Maybe you can swim into the ocean with them when they're freed!
