Dear John,
Campaign update - Penguins hit the press!
As you may know, earlier this year we launched a campaign to free the gentoo penguins currently held captive in London Sea Life Aquarium. These penguins live in a basement aquarium, they have no daylight, no fresh air, and just a tiny pool of a few feet in depth.
Most recently we launched an open letter calling for their release, which has now been signed by 26 high profile people including Chris Packham, Peter Egan, and Carol Royle.
Our open letter first appeared in The Express last Friday and since then the campaign has gone from strength to strength. All this week it has hit multiple national press offices and featured in the BBC, The Jeremy Vine Show and Times Radio.
The letter is calling on Sea Life and Merlin Entertainments, who own Sea Life and various other 'attractions' around the country, to cease immediate breeding and exhibition of these animals and send them to a true sanctuary.

Like many zoos and aquariums, Sea Life likes to make out that they are helping species’ conservation - however, gentoo penguins aren’t even threatened in the wild and are classed as ‘Least Concern’ by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
What can you do to help these penguins?
🐧 Please sign the petition ([link removed]) today. If you have already signed, please share across your social media. The number of signatures is growing but we still need more!
🌊 Boycott all Merlin Entertainments attractions until they stop exploiting animals!
❄️ Adopt a penguin ([link removed]) to help us continue our work for a world without cages!
For the animals,
Laura Walton
