Protest Against Ripley’s Aquarium Beach Party
Ripley’s Aquarium of Canada is hosting their first ever indoor beach party this month.
We have the opportunity to share information with people who want to/will attend this event.
Since Toronto has NO direct connection to any tropical wildlife, let alone the ocean – it makes sense for us to educate the public about this $130 million dollar facility which is used purely for entertainment purposes. It’s essentially an aquatic amusement park, with it’s touch tanks, crawl tunnels and tsunami simulator.
It is beyond cruel to keep these beings confined in such small spaces. It’s even worse that so many people are unaware of the negative impacts this Aquarium has had on the aquatic wildlife residing within those tanks.
To throw a loud, unnecessary party inside an aquarium is barbaric. These creatures were born to live in the vast, peaceful and majestic oceans they came from.
The sharks, sting rays, fish and other wildlife in this aquarium are constantly surround by the loud annoying sounds coming from human beings. Nothing about that is natural.
Please join this protest to help educate the public about this cruelty! Free the tanks!
