Brittany Mahomes was on vacation and took several photos with a dolphin. However, PETA took issue with the photos and made it known in statements to her.
Comments from some upset people on Brittany’s post
PETA statement on Brittany’s photos with the dolphin
“We know you love companion animals,” PETA said in a comment on the post, “but we hope to see you extend your compassion to marine life too.”
“In the ocean, dolphins swim up to 60 miles each day, but when used for entertainment, they’re confined to small tanks or pools. Many dolphins develop painful conditions, such as stomach ulcers, and some die prematurely from the stress conditions of extreme captivity. Not to mention, many illnesses can be passed from dolphins to human visitors including viral, fungal and bacterial infections such as salmonella.
“These types of interactions are dangerous for them AND us.”
