A letter for Morgan, and Henk Bleker

WRITE to Dr. Henk Bleker;
The State Secretary of Economic Affairs, Agriculture and Innovation
Ministerie van LNV Postbus 20401
2500 EK Den Haag, Netherlands

Hey everyone! Please consider writing a letter to Dr. Henk Bleker. It only takes a moment of your time, and it would really help! Morgan needs a lot of support right now, and showing that you care is a great way to assist in her case.
The address for Henk Bleker is above. I have written a letter (read in this video) and will be posting shortly.

Please be RESPECTFUL. Rudeness gets you nowhere.

Thank you everyone! If you need help, feel free to comment, or send me a message!

I posted my letter yesterday. Also sent an email, wrote on his facebook page and donated.

I also included photos of tekoas rakes and skylas bitten dorsal fin in with the letter.

@hateseaworld - Awesome job! Great idea including the rake mark photos. Everyone needs to see that Loro Parque is NOT a good place for Morgan!

Got mah e-mail sent. Hopefully it'll convince him, as I used the old "appeal to the human ego" tactic in the first paragraph, kinda. :P

This is going to sound dumb, but does anyone know how many stamps are needed to send post from the U.S to the Netherlands?

[FreedomForOrcas]

@TheLadyWhiteSnake - Haha no that's not dumb at all! No one really uses snail mail so I think it'd be effective if people used it more :)

It depends on how much it costs to send a letter overseas from your country. Here in Australia it's about ....$2 to send one overseas? So, if stamps are 50 cents each, you'll need to put on 4 stamps.

I reckon 3 or 4 stamps should do it. Otherwise if you go to a post office, they should be able to tell you.

Thanks for writing a letter!

@FreedomForOrcas

Ah, thanks, I figured it would be about four to six stamps.

I think it's a good idea to point out to Dr. Bleker that according to Ingrid Vidder's observations , even Adan hasn't been accepted by his own relatives, so Morgan, being an outsider, doesn't stand much of a chance of integrating into the pod like the marine park industry claims. I'm worried she'll be isolated even further and then possibly chewed to ribbons if she goes there.

[FreedomForOrcas]

@TheLadyWhiteSnake - Yes, that is a good point to bring up, definitely! I heard an interesting theory about Morgan. Someone said that maybe she is being sent to LP deliberately because they know she'll be picked on, and then use it as an excuse to bring her into the US (because according to permit laws it's too difficult to import her)... or something like that.

Good job Gwen, I hope she goes home

@FreedomForOrcas

Lol, I just realized my dumb typo. Ingrid "Vidder." Who the hell is Ingrid "Vidder?" XD

Well, that's just nefarious. If they do that to Morgan and leave Tekoa there, that will make them look extremely callous, but they probably don't want to miss the opportunity to brag about how they rescued her from the big scary ocean. Poor Adan though, I feel awful for him being born into that environment.

Snail mail sent. E-mail sent. :)
