Ric O'Barry never thought for a second that he would regret the day he agreed to train Flipper for the movie. He campaigns to this very day to stop dolphins and whales being used in dolphin parks, movies and captivity of any kind. He has worked on both sides of the captive dolphin issue, making him an invaluable asset in the efforts to end exploitation. He worked for 10 years withing the dolphin captivity industry, and has spent the last 40 years working against it.

There is nothing glamorous about showbiz for primates, big cats, bears, and other animals who are used in television, film, or advertising; exploited as sports mascots; or used as props in novelty displays. Torn away from their mothers as infants, these animals are subjected to abusive training methods and forced to spend most of their lives in small, filthy cages, deprived of everything that is natural and important to them.
