Please join Simon in always speaking out whenever you see tour companies advertising cruel “swim-with-dolphins” excursions or other exhibits at marine abusement parks.

After spending 30 years confined to a tank, yet another orca has died in captivity.

The world’s largest student travel company, STA Travel, has made the adventure even better by pulling promotions for three cruel attractions.

“I think we live in a society now where people should be told the truth …” said You Me At Six lead singer Josh Franceschi after seeing the Blackfish.

Almost 10,000 people sent messages to Russian authorities asking that two wild orcas who were captured last year be released back into the ocean.

The film Blackfish – a compelling documentary about how orcas are imprisoned, exploited and driven mad by SeaWorld – is still making a splash, months after it was released.

After Blackfish won plaudits from the likes of Ewan McGregor, Leona Lewis and Stephen Fry, you’d be forgiven for thinking that there couldn’t be any bigger fans..

Blackfish has been making waves around the world.

The Dutch government allowed orca called Morgan to be shipped off to Loro Parque, Spain, where it’s kept in small tanks and is abused and forced to perform.

Blackfish, the new film from Gabriela Cowperthwaite, exposes what lies behind the “entertainment”.
