We are only 10 days away from our #EmptyTheTanks protest for the #MojaveDolphins. Visit our website if you are unaware of what's happening to the dolphins at the Mirage habitat: http://mojavedolphins.com/ We will be meeting in front of the Mirage volcano from 7 until after the 9pm eruption. The volcano erupts at 8 and 9pm. It will be very crowded during this time. Please grab the signs and line up 5-10 minutes before each eruption time against the back gate, and raise those signs high! We want to be captured in the tourists photographs and be seen. If it is posisble for you, please do not pay to park within the Mirage Hotel and Casino parking lot. Lots with free parking include TI (next door), Palazzo (across the street), and Venetian (across the street). You can also use a service like LYFT. You can download and print the official posters from http://emptythetanks.org/posters/, but I will have several available for you to borrow. Please do not block the pedestrian walkway. We must keep the path clear. (at Secret Garden & Dolphin Habitat At The Mirage)

Getting ready for tonight. Here's a couple of our Taiji protest signs. Tonight is the event. Grab your friends! We will meet from 7:45 to 9:15 pm. Free park at Treasure Island. The goal is to have our signs standing tall along the gate in front of the volcano. It gets hectic. Stay against the railing. Keep the pathways clear. The volcano will erupt at 8pm and 9pm. #mojavedolphins @mojavedolphins

i’m actually pretty pissed that the mirage hotel went ahead and named the baby dolphin “karli”. it stands for Knights Aces Rebels Lights Inclusion. my entire lifes purpose is to raise awareness about the captivity of these sentient beings. i live in las vegas because i wanted to speak out against the mirage hotel. i;ve been raising awareness in this city for more than five years. the dolphins when i moved here were DISEASED with a pox virus and not a single person thought “hey dolphins aren’t suppossed to look like this, maybe we should look into it??” it took me dragging their ass through the media to get salinity levels changed. there are eleven dolphins trapped in this hotel. the pool is not that deep, and they spend their time at the surface. remember, it gets like 117 here. dolphins can get sunburn just like you do. the dolphin pools do not have any type of shade. the new shade structure is a joke and only in one pool at the interaction space (where you get to beach the dolphin for a photo!! congrats, you’re an asshole)
anyway, im pissed that once again i cannot just ENJOY SOMETHING WITHOUT IT GOING BACK TO DOLPHINS.
learn more on my website: www.mojavedolphins.com @mojavedolphins
on the plus side, downtown las vegas just got this really cool art piece centered around the waste the world creates and saving the planet and animals. One of the pieces is a whale that has EMPTY THE TANKS stamped on the walls and i am so touched so I know we are making a difference..

Hey. I read the discussion (argument?) you were having with some numpty and noticed you mentioned something about problems with the mirage hotel. I was wondering if you could elaborate/set me off in the right direction to research the place. Thanksss
Of course. If you don’t mind, I’m just going to give you links - a page, and a link to a Facebook page run by the same person, who’s extremely knowledgeable on the facility’s details. She’d likely be able to answer any specific questions you might have.http://mojavedolphins.com/https://www.facebook.com/MojaveDolphins/@mojavedolphins is their tumblr as well.

NEXT PROTEST: Saturday, November 28, 3:00-5:00 pm. Check out @mojavedolphins here, on Facebook, and on their website MojaveDolphins.com for more details. Signs will be provided. Repost @mojavedolphins with @repostapp. ・・・ #MojaveDolphins In a press statement from MGM, a 12-year old bottlenose dolphin named Beetle died on Oct. 27 of unknown causes. Beetle was the 13th dolphin to die at The Dolphin Habitat at The Mirage in Las Vegas. Historically, this facility has had 22 dolphins — now with a 59 percent mortality rate and an average age of death of 10-years old. Wild dolphins can live to be 50 years or more, concluding that this facility, even with up to date filtration systems and temperature controlled water, restaurant quality frozen dead fish and a full time vet, the dolphins in Las Vegas are dying 30 years younger in their captive environment in the desert.

"The dolphin smile is nature's greatest deception," Ric says. "It creates the illusion that they're always happy. I think this multi-billion dollar captivity industry is built on that optical illusion." #MojaveDolphins Www.MojaveDolphins.com (at Secret Garden & Dolphin Habitat At The Mirage)

MojaveDolphins.com witnessed both chewing gum and a chicken nugget in the main pool with Beetle and Maverick today on 2.16.15. How many other dangerous substances are the dolphins exposed to on a daily basis thanks to low barrier walls and the city of sin?

hey whats that drama about you just blogged? ive seen some drama go down but i am unfamiliar with that one??? ahhhi want this to be a nice place again
Kalia-s was a pro-cap blog and basically just caused a lot of trouble and antagonized people. Apparently people were sending them a lot of hate and they made this weird post saying "This was a social experiment" and then they deleted.
That's pretty much what I remember, anyways.

It is tourist season for Las Vegas. Please remind your family and friends to avoid The Mirage hotel during their vacation. Animals are still being exploited under the desert sun. The Mirage is part of MGM, the largest resort company in our city. You can take your activism a step farther by refusing to visit any MGM properties along the strip. Las Vegas Casino Executives do not listen to our words, but they will pay attention to where the money is. #MojaveDolphins #EmptyTheTanks www.MojaveDolphins.com 🆘🐬 Next Protest: May 12th, 7-9pm at the Mirage volcano 🌋
