Dolphins & Captivation

Postby Rami Off Work » 11 Jan 2013 21:57

Hi Everyone,

As you will remember, we had showed our position as ICR company in regards to Dolphins captivation issue last summer by dropping all our listed excursions and sales associated with Dolphins. Many of you supported our decision about it so we thank you for it.

Here is a petition going on against Dolphins Captivation in Kas, Antalya with 14+K signatures already. I just watched on Turkish news channel on TV and what they are saying is, if this petition reaches its goal, it would mean an end to all captivations of Dolphins through out Turkey. So, I thought i would share the link with you to sign and spread the news everywhere.

Since its in Turkish, here is the instructions on how to sign it.

Click on the link below and fill out the sign up form on top right of the page.
http://www.change.org/tr/kampanyalar/ka%C5%9F-yunus-park%C4%B1-derhal-kapat%C4%B1ls%C4%B1n-ve-yunuslar-%C3%B6zg%C3%BCr-b%C4%B1rak%C4%B1ls%C4%B1n-yunuslaraozgurluk?utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=url_share&utm_campaign=url_share_before_sign

The fields you see and their meanings are as follows:

isim: Means Name
Soyad: means Last Name
Email: :)
Sokak Adresi: Means the name of your street.
Sehir: means the name of your city
name of your Country should show as default
Posta Kodu: means postal code

So thats it and click away on the red button saying IMZANI AT- Means Sign the Petition.

PS: Check mark below says: Show my signature on change.org so you can leave it as it is.

Hope it helps...

Good work, Rami - if only more travel firms would take a similar stance. I am sure this has not gone un-noticed by those who care for the welfare of animals.

This btw is not done for any recognition at all and if I/we had our way all animals that "dance" for human pleasure would be stopped

Hi Sue,

No, it's still there. It says it's an open group for anyone to join.

I have copied the link - http://www.facebook.com/groups/157182280960717/

Don't know what will happen when you try it! Let me know if it works.
