“I was told that a large proportion of the offspring would be surplus to requirements. Specifically, they would be scooped up in a net and thrown out as if they were rubbish.”

I recently shared the tragic story with you of Brenda the octopus who was desperately trying to escape her prison by throwing herself at the aquarium glass wall. I shared the story of a smooth-hound shark, who I saw spiralling around and around for no reason, driven mad by his captivity.

These animals are just a few from the many that I met on my undercover investigation. There are many more who are suffering everyday, who need our help. That is why I am reaching out again today to ask for your support in our campaign.

With your help we are taking our findings right to the top, to take action for these animals, both those still alive and those tragically no longer with us. We are demanding that DEFRA, who oversee animal welfare law, take immediate action against these aquariums. Will you please send a donation today to help us do this?

P.S. Right now, animals are suffering in aquariums. Many are driven mad by captivity, are sick and injured and some are even left to die. Please send a donation today to stop this and protect these animals. Thank you.
