A long way from home

Photo was taken in Japan's Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium.

I witnessed a group of aquarium staff who completely ignored the existence of the dolphin during their routine cleaning work.

I was shocked at this view. Our ocean friend, the dolphin has been kept with our kind.

I seem to hear them cry "Where is my home?"

 

Raised in captivity dolphins are deprived of their liberty and confined in a limited space and become human entertainment. We should reflect further about these marine animal shows. Do we need this entertainment ? They belong in the deep blue ocean, NOT WITH US.

 

Am I one of your kind? If not, where I am here??
