The capture of orcas and belugas in Russia is considered illegal!
The ongoing orca and beluga whales of the dolphinariums have just been stopped by the Russian justice system, which considers their capture illegal!
The ongoing orca and beluga whales for dolphinariums has just been stopped by the Russian justice system, which considers their capture illegal!
A detention centre in a bay in the Okhotsk Sea has been spotted this summer in Russia. The orca and beluga whales were trapped in tiny floating pens, waiting to be transferred to China, where dozens of giant dolphinariums are waiting for them.
Sold for a high price, these incredibly intelligent and highly social beings are forced into lifelong captivity and forced to reproduce in tiny pools. With shows vaguely resembling recreation from a life of boredom.
Visibly, images that moved the world have alerted the public. We wrote to the Russian Embassy and urged everyone to do the same to demand that these young cetaceans be released. Russian justice was then seized by the animal advocates on the spot.
Ecrivons à @ambruspresse pour faire cesser ce trafic indécent de jeunes #belugas & #orques, capturés et parqués dans des enclos flottants, pour être vendus sur le marché de la captivité en pleine expansion dans l’Empire du Milieu! #StopDelphinarium https://t.co/Oy6mg49ua1

Shortly after, Russia decided to ban all new sea captures of these marine mammals by 2019. An important step had been reached, because with Norway and Japan, this country was very difficult to convince to stop this shameful trade.
La détention de 90 bélugas et 13 orques dans une prison flottante de l’Extrême-Orient russe a provoqué un scandale international. La Russie vient d’annoncer l’interdiction de la capture d’orques et de bélugas en 2019. #StopDelphinarium pic.twitter.com/RyBjqTfi2F

Thanks to Russian justice, the belugas and orcas that were captured in November and whose fate remained suspended, cannot be sold as planned. South Sakhalinsk City Court has recognized the fishing of 90 belugas and 11 illegal orcas! It’s a first and a strong signal for the rest of the world. When will it be the end of dolphinariums everywhere on this planet and to stop this evil trade at its roots?
Alors que dans le monde, la capture des orques et des bélugas pour les delphinariums a été abandonnée, la Russie continuait à fournir ses parcs et ceux de Chine. En 2019, ce sera terminé! A ce jour, la France n’a toujours pas interdit la captivité des cétacés #StopDelphinarium pic.twitter.com/Z5PuWHgcif
