Resource Description

Does the End Justify the Means? Dolphin Captivity in Australia and Asia

The learning sequence for this activity begins with sharing ideas about our experiences with dolphins, in both captive and wild settings. First, students watch a video which introduces them to the issues raised by keeping dolphins in captivity. They then listen to the Voiceless ‘APES’ Podcast Episode #1: Dolphins in Captivity. Critical analysis of the interviewees various positions on this important topic follows and students are encouraged to develop their own position about cetacean captivity.
