Gally50~ While I understand all that to be true, Having a few in captivity helps heighten awareness of the general public and also funds for further research. They are beautiful animals and I love getting the chance to see them up close. Zoos do the same thing. I don't usually hear complaints about zoos, I feel that sea world is much the same thing. Not everything or everyone is perfect. As long as there is no abuse going on I don't see a problem.
Dolphins are intelligent and social creatures that, in the wild, interact with hundreds of pod-mates, hunt communally, and have entire coastlines as their playground. In captivity, all of this is lost. Social partners are restricted to a handful of tank-mates. Captive dolphins are fed dead fish (wild dolphins only catch and eat live fish; they never eat dead fish) and they face a profound reduction in space and stimulation. SOURCE WSPA

keeping a tiny amount of these animals will help educate the public about them
the only way to learn is to make it fun
people need to 1st worry bout the animals being abused not the animal that r being treated right and being loved
