No Dolphins At Marine Life Park Opening

Mr Louis Ng, executive director of Animal Concerns Research and Education Society, said the Marine Life Park can serve as an educational tool, but it can do without the dolphins. He pointed out that a threat facing the specific dolphin species comes from being captured live for oceanarium display.

Mr Ng said: “It’s going to be a contradiction if Resorts World says it is here to educate the public about dolphin protection.” Resorts World said that the arrival dates of the Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphins have not been firmed up yet. -myp
