Boating With the Dolphins in Hilton Head Island, SC
Loading...
Uploaded by MarcioUSC on May 27, 2008
When we decided to go for a boat ride on Jonathan's boat on Memorial Day 2008 of the coast of Hilton Head Island, the dolphins decided to come say hey. There were 4 different dolphins that came within reach of our hands... :)

Feeding and attempting to feed wild dolphins is prohibited under the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972 (MMPA) implementing regulations. The maximum civil penalty for violating the MMPA is $20,000; the maximum criminal fine is $25,000 and/or one year in jail.
-
Feeding wild dolphins is illegal because of scientifically documented harmful effects, including changing dolphins’ natural behavior, jeopardizing their health through ingestion of contaminated or inappropriate food and non-food items, and reducing their wariness of people and boats.
-
Dolphins then become vulnerable to injury or death from entanglement in fishing gear or boat strikes. Feeding wild dolphins may also increase the likelihood that dolphins will take bait and/or catch from recreational and commercial fishing gear. Further, feeding poses a significant safety risk to humans, as there are documented cases of people being bitten, hospitalized, and killed by wild marine mammals when attempting to feed and closely interact with them.

Please visit the “Don’t Feed Wild Dolphins” website for more information.

@Vampiremistress00 I guarentee he doesn't, I've never heard once of someone making a wallet out of a dolphin. And if i'm wrong, that's incredibly sick. Make it out of a shark or something, something that actually does cause harm to human life. Although I rather you not kill a shark Jboob, You're still probably a 10 year old e-thug.

@MaNiMaBaLLa: I sure hope you wouldn't make a wallet out of a shark, considering how many endangered shark species there are =/ "More than 100 shark species are being commercially exploited and some of them in such a drastic way that their long-term survival isn't guaranteed. Three sharks die every second." . But because sharks aren't cute like dolphins, nobody gives a sh*t about them... But you're right on one point: Jboob comment was stupid.
