Richard O'Barry was
the man who captured and trained
the dolphins for
the television show Flipper. O'Barry's view of cetaceans in captivity changed from that experience when as
the last straw he saw that one of
the dolphins playing Flipper - her name being Kathy - basically committed suicide in his arms because of
the stress of being in captivity. Since that time, he has become one of
the leading advocates against cetaceans in captivity and for
the preservation of cetaceans in
the wild. O'Barry and filmmaker 'Louie Psihoyos' go about trying to expose one of what
they see as
the most cruel acts against wild dolphins in
the world in Taiji, Japan, where dolphins are routinely corralled, ei
ther to be sold alive to aquariums and marine parks, or slaughtered for meat.
The primary secluded
cove where this activity is taking place is heavily guarded. O'Barry and Psihoyos are well known as enemies by
the authorities in Taiji...
