Annelise is the co-founder and President of the organization No Whales in Captivity, since 1992. The Vancouver Aquarium has been in the spotlight these days, as they claim to be losing 3.3 million dollars a month since they shut down to customers as of March 17 due to the pandemic, and they have no back-up plan in place. They are now asking our government to provide a 9.5 million bailout so that they can continue to pay operation costs to keep their 70,000 animals imprisoned in their small areas of confinement.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Vancouver Aquarium is perhaps more a zoo than aquarium now, with only one cetacean (Helen the dolphin) left on site, and they have historically rejected animal sanctuary projects, which would put the well-being of their animals at the forefront instead of paying customers and profits. Public support for keeping captive animals continues to decline, and Annelise believes that it is time to stop all government funding and tax-payer subsidies for the Vancouver Aquarium. Keeping animals in captivity purely for entertainment purposes is not an essential service, and Annelise says, for just that reason, our government should not bail out this multi-million dollar business hiding behind a charitable society status.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In this interview, Annelise sheds light on the shady history of the Vancouver Aquarium, and speaks more of the 70,000 animals kept behind its walls in very unnatural and confined enclosures. How much longer can these animals be imprisoned this way before society completely agrees that this is an archaic exploitative treatment of animals, and that the future holds virtual reality displays that provide a much more fascinating experience?\u00a0To sign the petition letter to our Municipal, Provincial and Federal Government Officials, you can click\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/chng.it\/PmGdD9WVmz\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>For a full expos\u00e9 on the historical shady dealings of the Vancouver Aquarium, you can watch this free feature-length documentary here, \u201cVancouver Aquarium Uncovered\u201d, made by local filmmaker Gary Charbonneau: <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-vimeo aligncenter wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-vimeo wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/250066910\" width=\"860\" height=\"484\" frameborder=\"0\" webkitallowfullscreen=\"\" mozallowfullscreen=\"\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dr. Sailesh Rao on Healing our Planet and Preventing Extinction<\/h2>\n<p>Dr. Rao is the author of two books, <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.carbondharma.org\/\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Carbon Dharma: The Occupation of Butterflies<\/em><\/a> and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/carbonyoga.org\/\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Carbon Yoga: The Vegan Metamorphosis<\/em><\/a>.
