This summer I visited the National Aquarium, where I realized that the dolphins were being prostituted as part of some sort of live act to entertain small children.
I hadn't even begun to think about what they were doing to them at other tourist traps, where swimming with the dolphins is big money.
How disturbing is that. To think, they make you pay money to mistreat animals.
As if the Dolphin-Safe controversy wasn't bad enough.
