Miami Seaquarium building

Veterinary staff at Miami Seaquarium are quitting in droves. And it’s clear why: animals have been sick and dying, leading to federal citations and probes.

Animal abuse at the facility is rampant. Recent examples include a broken bolt lodging itself in a captive dolphin’s mouth, another dolphin found with a nail stuck inside its throat, and black mold growing inside animals’ enclosures. Even visitors to the site are turning away feeling “more sad than anything” due to the visible signs of neglect and mistreatment, leading the website Tripadvisor to refuse to sell tickets for the Seaquarium.

All of this caused three veterinary technicians to resign recently, culminating in a fourth major resignation – this time from the site’s only head veterinarian.

Please sign this petition to demand that federal officials immediately close down this abusive, neglectful park now!
