Subject: Humans are dolphins' biggest threat. Legal personhood would protect
these animals.
Dolphins recognize each other by whistle-names. We
recognize them by their maimed fins.
Legal Personhood Would Help Protect Dolphins from
Harm, Death, and Human Carelessness
Sign Now
Dolphins are brilliant, playful, social animals.
They develop names for each other, identified by their unique whistles. They
inspire people all over the world. And humans are making their lives harder
and harder all the time.
That's why it's so exciting to know that animal
lovers in Korea are fighting to have their government grant bottlenose
dolphins "legal personhood" to strengthen their legal rights!
Right now, the main threats to dolphins' safety are
mostly from humans. Pollution and farm run-off, the reckless use and
abandonment of fishing equipment, construction, boating vehicles, and
climate change are all wreaking havoc on dolphins' ecosystem — sometimes
leaving them disfigured, maimed, or even dead.
That's why legal personhood is so important. If a
fishing corporation, rich person's yacht, or other group or individual
threatened dolphins' well-being, wildlife conservations could actually sue
them on the dolphins' behalf. Action like that could make corporations and
careless individuals finally start respecting these phenomenal animals'
rights!
The International Union for Conservation of Nature
(IUCN) lists dolphins as "near threatened." That means the animals are not
quite threatened yet, but they're on their way to becoming more vulnerable
to extinction — and we need to intervene while we still can.
Let's stand with activists in Korea as they fight to
help these wonderful animals! Sign the petition to urge the Korean
government to list bottlenose dolphins as being "legal persons"!
Thank you,

P.S. Since humans represent the main threats to
dolphins' well-being, we must also counteract that and become their main
protectors and supporters. Sign the petition.
