Description

Dr. Naomi Rose joins me on the podcast with an interesting story that resulted in the death of a recently transferred beluga whale at Mystic Aquarium. The beluga whale named Havoc was transferred from the troublesome Marineland located in Canada.  Naomi describes how the process was flawed from the beginning including the fact that Havoc was sick before the transfer and Mystic Aquarium is known for research that showed cetaceans that are sick don't do well with being transferred.  This story highlights the problems with processes even though they are in countries that have animal welfare laws that are perceived as effective; however, you will find out that the processes need crucial improvements.  Link to article: https://www.treehugger.com/mystic-whale-beluga-whale-death-controversy-5197322 Connect with Dr. Naomi Rose: 1) AWI Website: https://awionline.org/ 2) Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/frdolphinPOV 3) Twitter: https://twitter.com/frdolphinPOV Check out all of our episodes on www.speakupforblue.com Want To Talk Oceans?
