Dolphin-Show in Tenerife Loro Parque

[IJJosh]

they're awesome, i weent there this year

[ShnizzleSnish]

that show was amazing its brilliant there i want to be a dolphin trainer, the animals look so happy!<3

[md4theoceans]

BOYCOTT all dolphin shows!!!

[tripatz]

stop torturing animals!!!!

[karenfayekal]

orcas and dolphins belong in the sea swimming and being what they were born to be captivity, in a small watery cage is beyond cruel confinement ...and not very sage cetaceans have intelligence on a par or higher than man to be trapped in a marine park for them is a garbage can for entertainment tenerife should not depend on these glorious creatures let their incarceration end!!!! KLK

[Piisuke]

@karenfayekal What is cruel is to condemn these creatures as captured animals. As I said to someone else, not every animal can take care of itself and is better off in places like this, or does one need to remind you of what happened to Keiko? You know Keiko? Free Willy? It was let free and it died, because it beached itself. I love people like you who think every animal is suffering, just because they're in a zoo. It just shows how little people know.

[karenfayekal]

@Piisuke

keiko would not have been is his sad predicament had he not been corralled and captured for man's amusement.

for those cetaceans who cannot be succesfully released into the wild, sanctuaries should be created

as far as zoos, sadly they are at time the only place animals are safe from man...in manmade cages

complex, tragic...

[Piisuke]

@karenfayekal There's no proof that Keiko would have survived, had he not been captured, stop being so deluded. Aside from that, why is it that bad? Orcas and dolphins get daily excercise, get fed, are taken care of, so what is your big problem? Also, as you said yourself, it is even safer for them at this day and age where mankind is destroying the planet. Focus your energy on that, not on zoos who take care. Besides, were it not for zoos, a lot more species would be extinct. Think about that!

[gally50]

Most captive dolphins are confined in minuscule tanks containing chemically treated artificial seawater. Dolphins in a tank are severely restricted in using their highly developed sonar, which is one of the most damaging aspects of captivity. It is much like forcing a person to live in a hall of mirrors for the rest of their life - their image always bouncing back with no clear direction in sight.

[Piisuke]

@gally50 And not every dolphin would survive in the wild, due to illnesses, or being abandoned by its parents. Same goes for a lot of animals held "captive" in zoos. Maybe you need to learn that not every animal is held captive, but is taken care for in a zoo, where the same animal could otherwise not survive. In other words, in a lot of cases, animals are better off in a zoo where they're save from poachers, abusers, deforesters and whatnot and given a place of their own.

[callumtabs]

I KNOW THAT ITS THE BIGGEST DOLPHIN TANK IN THE WORLD BUT HOW DEEP IS IT?

[Piisuke]

@callumtabs The orca ocean is 12 meters deep, so I presume the dolphin tank would be of similar depth.

[placebo106]

Loro Parque was one the most amazing place I have ever seen in my life.

[jellsbright101]

that is sooo freakin awesome!

[helloyousmellsobad]

I was there like winter 2007 :)

[idalaura]

i live in tenerife :D

[vyprcejmiokacka]

[lilleklee]

i was there a ½ half year ago! they were so awesome :D

[mattduderock]

it was amazing. my cousin works there

[Clubpenguin10943]

we saw that last week, it was AMAZING!!! I LOVED it, thanks for reminding me how brilliant it was! I WONNA GO BACK TO LORO PARQUE!!! THX U FOR LORO PARQUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thx u for the vid!!

[mileyraysmileyfan101]

woah i ve been there too

its sooooo beautiful

[chutchybo]

wow great vid,, i wanna go see

[NorwegianCrazyMan]

Just a little tip for those going to Tenerife. if u wanna go to both Loro Park and Junglepark, i would recomend u to go to Loro, becouse in Junglepark the birds are chained and some of the animals walk on concret. Don't get me wrong, it is a great park but i would recomend u to go to Jungle first so u don't get disappointed compared to Loro Park.

[enskiboltinn]

i whent there last year

[benlooe]

The child in the boat - music by Michael Jackson - freaky and bizare!

[noxyour]

es maltrato animal

[Nikik1986]

I went thay in july it is fantastic want to go bk nxt year

[estelle497]

I've never been to Loro Parque, but I definitely want to go! I'm in the SeaWorld mainstream.

The dolphin show definitely has what I want to see! Bottlenosed Dolphins aren't given enough credit strength-wise; at SeaWorld, it seems as if they try to make the orcas seem more powerful, by including more foot-push behaviors in Believe rather than Blue Horizons. But at Tenerife, footpushes are the basis of the behaviors, which is cool to see!

[GmMstr]

great vid

SOMEONE TALK TO ME Lf

[PiNkpRo]

im going 2 tenerife soon!!!!!!

[littleetty]

loro park is great but make sure you go to jungle park also they are just the best

[spatza07]

Wir waren zur gleichen Zeit in Puerto de la Cruz und im Loro Parque. Es war phantastisch.

[dapintoa]

gracias lora parque por explotar, atormentar y llevar a la muerte a estos animales...solo con la finalidad de lucrace

[boday07]

If you like dolphins you need to seach this, and have a look were these dolphin come from................Dolphin Swim Programs & SLAUGHTER Linked!!!!

[TheRealHannahPascoe]

i went in the november 2007, and came back on the 4th of december

[TheRealHannahPascoe]

going to loro park was the best thing i did all holiday!

i went up the mountain and went on an aeroplane for the first time ever and went in a submarine and it was still the best thing i did all year!! lol

the whale show was the best though, the dolphin show was good but the whales were beyond imagination, the videos are nothing compared to what it was like watching it in real life

[DarkKnightChiko]

QFT, exactly.. Loro Parque was just super trip.

FYI, they got 8 dolphins this summer, more fun and such ^^

[wollyback4lyf]

i go to tenerife every year its the best holidayy ive evr been on! they also have a zoo and they do parot shows! i lovee the dolphin shows

[eeliinnn]

i was there in december 07 .. dolphins are so cute :D

[imSOridiculous]

This is what I want to do- train animals! Not just marine animals, but birds and ... everything! I want to work at a zoo and do all the animal shows.

[Destro26]

Haha, all of you with the negative comments are really convinced you know everything. Unless you are currently employed at a place like this and see the animals every day, I don't think you really know what they're feeling.

[ellieb2307]

ITS NOT CRUEL! coz when i went when the show was about to start like the dolphins could hear the croud they were exited and they were like showing off doin there flips before the show even started! They love it there trust me ! and any1 else who ahs been there will agree

[imSOridiculous]

Yeah, there is a training and observing facility somewhere in the virgin islands employed by the navy, in which the dolphins are free to leave when they please, but they CHOOSE to stay. Dolphins actually enjoy human company.

[cms0147]

i strongly agree. we've just come back from Tenerife & we went 2 the Loro Parque twice it was that gud. best thing is, 2nd trip there, we did the discovery tour & i can tell from 1st hand experience just how much those magnificeint creatures enjoyed themselves. the whole of loro parque was a fantastic experience!!!

[ellieb2307]

i went last year and i went to loro pquare and i saw the dolphin show i really liked it it felt like it was only 1 minit it was tha good! i also really enjoiyed the killer whale show! p.p ellie x

[tgaautotrade]

cel mai tare parc

[billzh12]

i wen't november 07 =] auesome show love the whales best though

[dunnyjoshuaa]

i went to se the show in 2006 october too

[iThnake]

I saw this show about 2 weeks ago - it was great! And the sealions and orca too!

[tishtash64]

This is cruel! These dolphins live only a few years due to capitivity, poor conditions while suffering extreme stress. Take a trip on a boat for a natural and more humane way of seeing them in action.

[TheSnailsMovies]

I agree here, Dolphines are smart, but they should be used for Entertainment to us, we wouldn't like it if we were caught and trained up just to be watched day in day out and getting nothing out of it!

[zeus85]

you have no idea, in this park they also show how to take care of them in case thet you see a dolphin in danger

[dustcrack]

yeahh the only reason you have 2 pay is because some little girl got ill and that lil irl was me i went to that park and swam with them dolphins and my lil heart nearly exploded because ov those dolphins ! soo i got it free and recomend it 2 just be carefull okkies

[zatrus]

it costs 50€ to swim with then soo...i have done it i recommend it

[ALIBOUZAS]

Yo fui este verano...El dueño del Loro Parque es un genio!!

[FanMelendi000]

@ALIBOUZAS Si, qeria comprar a la familia del chico que murio porque lo ahogo la orca con un chalet y pasta pa que no lo denuncien y dejen de investigar que paso, es todo un genio ;)

[PureEliteL]

I went two years ago and would love to go back! It was amazing!!

[hupsutytto]

i have been in loro parque ove 13 times.. i´m not sure if 15th or 16th time is coming next christmas.. *hehe*

[brujixi07]
