We stil l do not know everything about dolphins , but that continue to research them. For example, after a dolphin that was being researched on dolphin whistles and what they mean, the water temperature i n the pool where the dolphin was staying, dropped to low and the dolphin was lost shortly after the session. Dolphins used to be caught in tuna nets all of the time, but now only once in a while. Now, there is another way of torturing and killing dolphins. Dolphins are being held captive in resorts, aquar iums, and shopping centers.
People cheer at the dolphins in captivity when they visit such places.
We should know that captivity is torture for dolphins, it's torture for all animals. New efforts have been made to stop the dolphins' protection. Senators Barbera Boxer and Joseph Biden, along with congressmember George Miller are trying to fight against this problem. 55,000 or more dolphins would annually be killed by tuna nets. Against these are three legislative efforts to weaken the United States policy on dolphin protection.
