Do you love dolphins in confinement or in open sea?

First of all, I don't care. I don't think I live in a dolphin-centric community (unless they really are our evolutionary/alien ancestors! ) If I'm 'going out to see dolphins,' I'd rather go to the zoo (so I can then go back home quickly rather than have to stay on vacation out at sea or something ... speaking from the land-locked Oklahoma---unless ... do they got freshwater dolphins, who hang out in lakes and rivers? ) Taking their point of view: I don't know, would you rather 'live indepently in this wild industrial world' or 'depend upon your owners to feed you, bathe you, keep you well and guide you in helping them entertain their customers?'

same here mr jackroy, no matter how they're been taking care off, i like them on open sea because that's there natural habitat.

I like Dolphins very much, they are my most favorite animals. I was saw once dolphins swimming in nature in open sea and this is so magical view. Its so nice to watch them, they feel so free on those big oceans. So I think they must stay on open sea.

Hi, JackRoy! Of course open sea! Just like human, no one will like to be in captivity - no matter how good the material conditions are, freedom should be the first.

I definitely want them to be in the open sea. Even you give all the love and care for them, it will still create stress on the dolphins when they are confined. It will take its toll on them in the long run. If I may suggest to those who really loves to see the dolphins, why not enhance the existing tours made for dolphin sightseeing like the one in Dumaguete or Palawan. Try to infuse some interaction between humans and dolphins in their natural habitat as what they are doing with the butandings in Donsol. I think this would be cool especially when the dolphins are much playful than the butandings...hehehe...
