Whether caught wild or born captive, orcas and dolphins in captivity are sentenced to a life of confinement deprived of normal social and environmental interaction — but a 75 percent death rate, even among skeptics, should raise a huge red flag. At The Mirage hotel’s Siegfried & Roy’s Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat, it’s business as usual: Three-quarters of the dolphins die prematurely!

In 2009, Born Free USA attempted to stop The Mirage from filling its tanks with more dolphins by appealing to the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) to deny the import permit for two more dolphins from Dolphin Cove, an infamous captive facility in Bermuda.
