Animal rights activists call for an end to 'circus-style' dolphin shows at theme parks
A bottle nose dolphin swims underwater in a pool at the animal theme park SeaWorld in San Diego, California, March 19, 2014.
Of greatest concern was the practice of trainers riding dolphins through the water while standing on their backs and beaks, said Dr. Heather Rally, a PETA Foundation veterinarian. Subjecting dolphins "such unnatural behaviour" may also provoke greater aggression between the dolphins, she said. "They are faster than us, they are stronger than us. They are in charge. They choose. They decide whether to do the interaction or not," he told reporters.
