It might surprise you that this is not a bottlenose dolphin but one of only five fresh-water #dolphin species 🐬They're called tucuxi and live in the #Amazon river basin in South America 🤓 #FunFact

A teenage orca has died at the Tenerife theme park Loro Parque. How many more of these intelligent, socially complex and highly mobile creatures have to live short, impoverished lives in a concrete tank? 💔 #EndCaptivity >
