Update: Victory for dolphins in Chile! Thanks in large part to letters from concerned animal advocates worldwide, Chilean authorities have announced new regulations to prohibit the capture of Chilean dolphins for public display and also prohibits holding and export. Since the importation of dolphins for display is already prohibited, this virtually eliminates the public display of dolphins in Chile.

Please take a moment to write a letter congratulating the Chilean government for this wise decision to protect and conserve Chile's marine resources.
