Hi Guys
please see the link below and see what's happening in Dubai. The Atlantis (same group that owns the Atlantis resort in Bahamas) has illegally captured a juvenile female whale shark and is keeping it an aquarium.

help us out here, with your thoughts, spread the word, etc etc. there is also a facebook group "Set The Whale Shark Free From The Atlantis Aquarium Dubai."

help us to get Sammy released before she has the same fate as other whale sharks held in captivity. She is losing weight, its difficult to feed her as 100s of cobia rush in and steal her food while they are feeding her with a bucket!

Your support is welcomed...

thanks a mil

Sara in Dubai
