Please urgently write to Resorts World (enquiries@rwsentosa.com and reservations@rwsentosa.com) and urge them to ensure that there are no firework displays near the dolphins (which happened this evening)!
The dolphins are already being held captive and let us not possibly stress them further.

They are naturally curious, always checking out new sights a...

It's part of an international campaign to cut down on meat consumption for health and environmental reasons.

If you feel we need to fight this injustice, please share our posts and please join us at the "Candlelight Vigil and Memorial Se...
