Our students at BGPS would like to see Wikie & Keijo free & swimming in a natural environment here in the whale sanctuary in Nova Scotia. They all agree that whales do not belong in tanks. @onevoiceanimal @yrdsb @CamilleBrunel @Mister_Regina @AgnesRunacher @ZoocheckCanada

A bill has been introduced into the U.S. Congress by @RepAdamSchiff to prevent the future capture and breeding of whales for public display and thus, over time, to end the exploitation of whales in entertainment parks and aquariums. #SWIMSAct whalesanctuaryproject.org/ne…
