What is Really Going on in Mexico? - a dolphin's sad fate

[KingsProduction50]

other countries have no experience with keeping animals in aquariums. the US and Canada h have the best aquariums. Japan should not have aquariums with whales and dolphins because the Japs EAT them !

[rapist41]

ha! mexico is more beautiful than america and their are some of the most beautiful women in mexico

[bizaroid]

@rapist41 Uhm... Mexico IS in America... What you mean is probably the US. Only, the US, is not America. It ias part of America. Nuance.

[Omar6890]

@rapist41 yeah.... stay away from mexico

[bibbbigirrrl98]

[Omar6890]

[johnianflores]

@Omar6890 you ought to burn at the lowest level of hell you saaad motherfucker!!!

[Omar6890]

@johnianflores why?

[Falchion43]

@Omar6890 You can eat Dolphins?

[Behemoth2334]

You speak of the aliens as if they are god like and not as ignorant as we are. The dolphins probably enjoy their lives with the trainers and all the attention they get. I am definitely against killing animals but you have to realize that there are things happening out there that we cannot control. Such as this. Acknowledgements and assumptions will always be made on these topics but you never truly understand the situation until you are a part of it.

@Behemoth2334 Another uneducated opinion!

The dolphins do not "enjoy their lives with the trainers".& if u actually knew where they come from,how they get them,&what happens to rest of dolphins i am sure ur attitude would change!

I really have no idea how people can enjoy seeing these dolphins enclosed in small pens and made to do tricks every day all day long!

These dolphins are not our to make money from!

[golfernix]

omg, shut up. Posting a boring video on youtube is not going to do anything

[dosdejamon2006]

Let's talk about SEA WORLD, it's probably same shit, isn't? or this is just Mexico??

It's really easy to talk shit about other countries, right?

[sharkfriend]

@dosdejamon2006

mexico and japan sell over the whole world, its not a blame on only mexico and japan, its on everyone that buys a dolphin.

watch the movie: ``the cove``

[dosdejamon2006]

@sharkfriend Do you know who are the enterprises, companies or individuals that sell dolphins in Mexico and/or Japan or is something that you are just assuming? Don't take me wrong and I'm not trying to be rude but talking about a contry where you don't live it's sort of irresposible.

[sharkfriend]

@dosdejamon2006

dude I wast talkin about other people, thats in ur , mind, I was talkin about the people responsible not more. other words; those people

[bizaroid]

@sharkfriend For starters, the Cove is no reference as a lot of what they say is just blatant lies. They made the movie in the worst possible way. In the end, the only thing they managed to do, is give the Japanese a bad image, which they didn't deserve. But it didn't change anything in what supposedly was their aim.

Then, I don't know about Mexico, but as for the dolphins that Japan sells, they stay in Asia. Last time a japanese dolphin was sent to some other place than Asia, was in 1989.

[NikkiesMommy2008]

@bizaroid Japan has started to ship out the dolphins now to China and Korea...

[bizaroid]

@NikkiesMommy2008 Yeah, that's what I said, didn't I? they "stay in resorts in Asia". Or do Korea and China not belong to Asia? As far as I'm concerned, they do. Actually, it's not only since a couple of years ago. I think they've been exporting them to China and Korea since way back (even before 1989)...

[sk8rcarlos]

Dude, this I believe has to do with Supply and demand. Tourist want to see them up close and personal, and interest groups supply. Mexican people have more to worry about than touching or even watching a dolphin do a flip. The last I saw at a vacation resort, It was Americans with money swimming with flipper.

[guva2212]

It's a shame!!!!!!

[thedolphinsmile]

Singapore is importing 18 bottlenose dolphins from the Solomon Island for the Marine Life Park in Sentosa that is due to open next year as well... i really do not wish this to happen :(

[pvtryan415]

yeah mint. fuck mexicans

[bizaroid]

@pvtryan415 As if all mexicans were at fault and as if you're country never did anything bad...

[journeyman47]

Excellent; a very good video; well done. Your message is loud and clear. Thank you for spreading the word on this terrible problem.

PS have you seen "The Cove" yet? Some of the dolphins in those places come from Japan as well.... also torn from their parents who are murdered.

[bizaroid]

@journeyman47 Nope, they don't come from Japan, as the dolphins coming Japan stay in resorts in Asia. The last time a japanese dolphin was sent to America, or so, was in 1989. Ever since then, only Asia.

A quick search on Chris Porter led me to this:

tinyurl(dot)com(slash)d2m6u6

"...caught over 100 dolphins with the help of indigenous hunters. These captures and his subsequent export of 28 dolphins to Mexico..."

The description of this video suggests 200 - 28 died during the trip from Solomon.

But contradicting information says 100 were captures, and 28 shipped to Mexico. So no deaths.

So what's the deal here?

[a1mint]

Mexico is corrupt to the core through and through. That's my assessment after reading so much bullcrap from Mexico.

Canadian tourists accused of killing other Canadian tourists. Canadian tourists getting run over without any investigation, robberies, kidnappings.

I have absolutely no inclination to go to Mexico. Although I imagine I could be missing out on some great cooking, and parties, music, and friendly people.

I just think the authorities are my enemy.

[blueeggsitter]

So right!! I love dolphins as well, but we need to respect their wildness. Thanks for making this video.

[JCVdude]

We tried to pass this information on to the people mentioned in the video, but they have now put a block on comments, maybe just ours.
