We will be holding a peaceful protest and bringing the vegan outreach stall to the 'Stolen from the Sea for Lifecentre' event.
To alert the public of the exploitation, suffering and surplus multiple deaths of marine life that is being funded with their money and love for animals!
It is not conservation it's cruelty!
Aquatic animals held captive in zoos and aquariums are largely overlooked in wider campaigns in the zoo industry, however, they are as deserving of our concern as other sentient beings.
Their life of the ocean becomes one lived in a tank. A sad existence in captivity unable to swim the depths of the sea with others of their kind.
In our Sea Lies Investigation into UK aquaria, we uncovered aquatic animals being taken from the wild, only 2.5% of exhibits housing animals belonging to endangered species, recurring health issues and high numbers of deaths, the killing of healthy “surplus” animals and breeding programmes only serving to stock Sea Life's tanks.
This event will raise awareness of the plight of animals held captive in aquaria.
Please join us in speaking up for the forgotten animals who live a life so far from what they would live naturally in the wild.
This will be a peaceful protest with Midland animal groups coming together united in making a stand against animals in captivity!
