    Dam at Marineland Antibes 💙
    Closeup from Keto at Loro Parque Tenerife. Release the animals, emty the tanks, don't buy a ticket.... These are common reactions on social media when a post is about a dolphin or orca under human care. I always say that everyone is entitled to have their own opinion. But because of the documentaries (like The Cove and Blackfish) and discussions online, everyone now thinks they know better what is good for the animals. We tend to humanize animals. It's good to be critical about animal welfare and whether keeping marine mammals can be improved. But we should not look at our own feelings but at the scientific aspects and the behavior of the animals to get a good picture what is really good for them. I believe that animal welfare is top priority at European zoological facilities, and dolphins and orcas have like any other animal a good life there.
    Kingfisher 📸💙 I think this is one of my favorites this year... It has been a big wish to photograph the kingfisher for years. When I finally had this colorful bird in front of my lens I was so happy!! I hope you all enjoy this photo 💙
    King at Dolfinarium Harderwijk 💙 Swipe to see a close-up from his eye. 👉 (it's the same photo..) Wish you all a wonderful week!!
    Morgan 💙 Over the past few years, I've talked about Morgan a lot, and I've also shared some photos of her on Instagram. She is in good hands at Loro Parque and she has a good life there. But, despite everything there are still a lot of discussions about this orca and are continue to flare up. A Dutch program called Zembla has made two episodes about orca Morgan. Last week the first part was broadcast and tomorrow (Thursday 4 November) part 2 will be on television. Unfortunately, in my opinion, the program does not have a very positive approach. So far the program seems very focused on bringing down Dolfinarium Harderwijk and Loro Parque. It does for example by sharing highly selective parts of interviews. The orca expert Ingrid Visser who appears multiple times in the program criticized the way Dolfinarium treated morgan and gave it public access. What unfortunately is not shared is the fact that she has not had any success with taking care of a calf. The two young whales she tried to save were cared for in anything but suitable facilities, unwilling to accept help from parties who were able to help, and allowed untrained people near the animal to support but also hug the calves. Both calves didn't survive..... This is contrary to what Dolfinarium has never allowed. And with the result that morgan lives to this day and lives with other orcas. Yes it's different than the wild but I think this was the best solution for her. She battled so hard to live! I am very curious what tomorrow will bring... After tomorrow I will share my thoughts about both episodes from Zembla. For now I will put some links in my stories to my website where you can read more about Morgan if you are interested.
    Life is not always perfect But it's always what you make of it So make it count, make it memorable! It has been a week since I posted my last photo, because my father in law passed away.... I'll be back to work in about a week. I wish you all a wonderful weekend ❤️

    Close up from Roxy 💙 Do you see the small opening on the left behind her eye? That's the ear. Like all mammals, dolphins have ears, including middle and inner ear canals. The ears are no external, but they have two small openings on both sides of the head. Dolphins have a very sophisticated hearing sense, they can listen to a broader range of frequencies than humans. While we humans can hear sounds from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, bottlenose dolphins can hear tones from 20 to 150/160 kHz. Their hearing sense is 7 times more sensitive than our ears.
    Close-up from Indy 💙 I came back from Disneyland Paris last night. And we had an amazing time! I have lots of videos and photos. And can't wait to share them!! But for today I wanted to share this close-up from Indy. I wish you all a wonderful weekend!
