Extractions: Another popular show, the Flipper Dolphin Show, takes place at the Flipper Lagoon, film location for much of the popular 1960s television show of the same name. The Flipper dolphins demonstrate the grace and intelligence of Atlantic bottlenose dolphins. The show includes jumps, spins, tailwalks and flips, all choreographed to music and accompanied by lively and informative narration. Audience participation segments personalize the performance for park guests. Guests are also taught how to protect the marine-life featured, especially the endangered sea turtles. When Miami Seaquarium first opened in 1955, one of the main attractions was the Shark Channel. Today, guests are still entranced by these fearsome creatures. At the Shark Presentation, animal care specialists feed 200-pound nurse sharks while explaining about the different species of shark that exist around the world. Tropical Wings Exhibit allows park guests to have an up-close look at exotic animals that are indigenous to the rapidly depleting rainforests of the world. Some of the animals featured are toucans, macaws, flamingos, tropical birds and reptiles. A thirteen feet high waterfall, a collective variety of coconut and queen palm trees provide visitors with a tropical palm grove view unlike any other setting in the park.

"Tragically, under the present regulatory system, the nuclear power industry's needs almost always prevail over the interests of marine life," said Scott Denman, Executive Director of the Safe Energy Communication Council (SECC). "Instead of applying sanctions when a nuclear plant kills more than its allotted quota of endangered species, NRC almost always supports industry attempts to raise the limits on the number of animals that can be killed or captured during reactor operation," Denman added.
National Marine Life Center - Buzzards Bay, Massachusetts
All except the Flatback are threatened or endangered species. marine turtles are adapted to life at sea with long, winglike flippers.
http://www.nmlc.org/marine-turtles.html

Extractions: With the exception of a few sea snakes, marine turtles are the only reptiles that spend their lives in the ocean. Their bodies are well adapted to ocean life, streamlined with powerful flippers rather than feet. They are generally solitary animals, interacting with each only during mating. As cold-blooded animals, unlike mammals, they take on the temperature of the water around them. Therefore, they spend most of their time in warm water. Scientists believe that, as juveniles, the turtles that we see in the Eastern US follow the warm Gulf Stream waters of the Atlantic Ocean from the Caribbean to feeding grounds north of Cape Cod.

Extractions: PASCAGOULA - ConocoPhillips came under fire Friday night for its proposed method of heating liquefied natural gas (LNG) and an environmental impact statement that some environmentalists said failed to look at all the marine species that could be affected by the company's proposed Compass Port LNG facility. To reconvert the frozen liquid gas back to a gas, the ConocoPhillips officials said they plan to use an open loop system that pulls in an estimated 136 million gallons of water per day from the Gulf of Mexico to warm the gas and then discharge the cold water back into the sea. The water would be treated with chlorine to prevent algae build-up in the lines.

The Marine Mammal Center

http://www.marinemammalcenter.org/learning/education/mammalinfo/endanger.asp

Extractions: An endangered animal or plant is a species that is considered in immediate danger of becoming extinct. Its population is very small and it needs active protection to survive. In the United States, hunting of endangered animals is not allowed. Neither is importation of their meat, fur, tusks, blubber, or other products. Extinction has happened throughout history, but in modern times the rate has increased dramatically. There is a link between the increase in the extinction rate and the growth in human population. The worldwide human population was 1 billion in 1600, 1.5 billion 100 years ago, and is over 6 billion today. At the same time, the species extinction rate has increased to one species a day. If this continues, it will cause a dramatic drop in the diversity of life on our planet, which will most certainly have serious effects. Increasingly, people crowd out places for wild plants and animals to live. Some animals and plants can survive in only one specific type of habitat, and when their habitat disappears, so do they. Some areas have become too polluted and unhealthy for animals and plants to survive. Recreational activities also interfere with wildlife. For marine mammals, there is the special problem of accidental entanglement in fishing nets and collisions with boats.
Alliance Of Marine Mammal Parks And Aquariums

http://www.ammpa.org/doc_annualreport.html

Extractions: Throughout 2003, members of the international Alliance of Marine Mammal Parks and Aquariums continued to motivate and nurture public concern about the need to conserve and protect whales, dolphins, sea lions, seals, walruses, manatees, and other marine species. The professionals who work at marine life parks, aquariums, and zoos are passionate about marine mammals. These professionals are committed to inspiring guests at their facilities to be conservationists in their daily lives and make educated decisions about issues that have an impact on marine mammals and their habitats in the wild. The year included many Alliance members opening new, exciting educational exhibits, expanding stranding programs, and initiating significant, innovative research. They offer children and adults special educational programs that make science interesting, teach about the dangers of pollution, introduce the public to endangered or little-known marine species, and cultivate an appreciation for the ocean and its animal treasures. Animal experts point to industrialization, development, waters polluted by leakage and runoff, and dumping as causes of deteriorating world habitats. Marine mammal researchers have sounded an alarm about the increase of incidences of disease outbreaks among animals in our oceans that appear to be associated with high levels of contaminant exposure. There is growing evidence that certain contaminants can affect survival and reproduction in a number of marine mammal species.
Alliance Of Marine Mammal Parks And Aquariums
It shows that the average age of dolphins in marine life parks, aquariums, in efforts to reestablish or reinforce an endangered native wild population.
http://www.ammpa.org/faqs.html

Extractions: The most recent lifespan study focused on the bottlenose dolphin and was conducted by Drs. Deborah Duffield of Portland State University and Randall Wells of the Chicago Zoological Societys Brookfield Zoo, which is a member of the Alliance of Marine Mammal Parks and Aquariums. It shows that the average age of dolphins in marine life parks, aquariums, and zoos is similar to that of dolphins in their natural environment. The study is based on comparative demographic census data for dolphins in public display facilities and a wild dolphin population in the waters of Sarasota, Florida, studied by Dr. Wells, the only wild dolphin population for which such data are available. This work corroborates a study published in 1988 by DeMaster and Drevenak who pointed out that survival of dolphins in aquariums may be better than or equal to survival in the wild.
