Dreaming Big: Dolphins at the Georgia Aquarium

It takes a man of great vision to be able to conceive of a project like the Georgia Aquarium and to consider a major addition, a dolphin gallery and theater, just a few years later. Learn all about Bernie Marcus' vision for the Georgia Aquarium, and see a glimpse of how his team is making AT&T Dolphin Tales a reality.

You moronic idiots do realize these dolphins were ALL rescued and brought here correct? And that the aquarium spent hundreds of thousands of dollars just in health care for these animals? You're a group of uneducated pieces of worthless garbage...and those of you speaking against it...what have YOU done for these animals in your entire lives? Thats what I thought...

Thank you GA Aquarium for bringing Dolphins. Finally bringing these close to were people can learn first had about these great animals and learn about them and their sea animal friends. Yes, you rescue, you EDUCATE, you research, you make a difference. There is SO much still to do and your input in my life and others that listen are concern about our oceans, our animals, fisheries , etc. We need more aquariums and people caring for what this world is all about. Thank you, thank you , thank you.

@1lillylangtree they were rescued ! and that tank isnt too small for a dolphin

How disgusting to see these poor creatures stuck in this tank. They belong in the ocean, not stuck in this project.

ive seen the show, and it inspired me to become a dolphin trainer, the dolphins at georgia aquarium are well taken care of and whoever thinks this is cruel, your stupid. dolphins should be out in the wild, i agree with that, but these dolphins were all rescued for a reason. they have a wonderful home at the aquarium.

@ hynosisracing -Just horrible how you "humans?" write to each other. If you ran the country we would be annihilated. You could say "Friends, I would like to let you know that ..., but no you take the lower road. Garbage in (the brain) garbage out (of the mouth).

Personally, it's beautiful.

Watch The Cove. That's all I've got to say. Poor dolphins :(

I am excited about coming to see the aquarium. From what I have heard it is awesome!

@hypnosisracing You clearly have the same problem cause as I had said, most dolphins can be rehabilitated and put back into the wild, I got that they were rescued but chances are that if they couldn't be put back into the wild they shouldn't be under the stress of performing and I wasn't specifically talking about the Georgia Aquarium but all of the marine parks and aquariums in general. And to anyone who is actually educated on the subject and not ignorant it's not a silly agenda.

[hypnosisracing]

@neonher Reading comprehension is not your strong suit im learning. These are RESCUED dolphins! These specific dolphins at the aquarium were rescued from a bad scenario and brought to our aquarium for rehabilitation and health care...the GA Aquarium didn't just go out to a fishery to get them, i dont know how to make that more clear for your very obviously thick skull kiddo! Take your silly agenda else where, arguing with you is both moot and useless because you are blinded by your agenda. Cya.
