Please join local PETA supporters for an important protest outside of SeaWorld’s Seven Seas Food Festival 5K run. We are urging SeaWorld to stop its cruel dolphin breeding program in which male bottlenose dolphins are masturbated, and females are torn out of the water and sometimes drugged so they can’t fight back while staff shove tubes filled with semen into their uteruses. Everything about these traumatizing practices goes against the natural breeding habits of whales and dolphins. Yet these appalling acts of abuse are the backbone of SeaWorld’s breeding program.
For years, PETA and our supporters have campaigned hard against SeaWorld, where more than 40 orcas and over 500 other dolphins and whales have died, and we’ve scored many victories for animals along the way. We need YOUR help to persuade the abusement park to stop breeding dolphins and whales and to set in place a firm and rapid plan to release the animals into seaside sanctuaries, where they’ll have a semblance of the natural life that they’ve been denied for so long.
Orcas, like Corky, SeaWorld’s oldest prisoner, and other dolphins and whales belong in their ocean homes, where they can swim long distances and exist in harmonious pods. But at SeaWorld, they're confined to concrete tanks, given psychoactive drugs, and housed incompatibly, leading to violent bullying and fighting.
Can you join us?

All materials (such as posters and leaflets) will be provided. Please dress sharply in a black PETA t-shirt and black bottoms, as this will help our message come across much stronger!
Please refrain from bringing dogs, as there may not be shade or a safe place for them to lie down during the protest.
Outreach events are a fun and effective way to help animals as well as meet local advocates, so be sure to invite others!
