"Dolphin desperate to escape captivity leaps out of its own tank during marine show"?

by Ellinorianne

Sure, you know, it seems strange and funny but ultimately it's sad and it shows how much these animals don't belong in captivity.

A false killer whale, a species in the dolphin family lept from its tank in front of a crowd of people at a show in Japan and into concrete.

It was one of the saddest things I've read as we struggle to save dolphins in the gulf, swimming in oil, sperm whales, basted in crude and this intelligent animal basically leaps to what would be it's own death.
