Following the devastating storm which has hit the French Riviera on Saturday, October 3rd 2015, the resident animals of the Marineland Marine Park, located in Antibes, are in danger.
Please ask Monsieur Ciotti to intervene and help save these poor sea creatures, held captive and at risk of disease and death from lack of electricity, filtration and oxygenation.
On Monday, October 12th one of the orcas from the marine park Marineland in Antibes, named Valentin, has died, most likely as a consequence of the floods from 2 weeks ago.
Valentin was born in captivity and died the same way.
Please help save the rest of these poor creatures still in captivity and suffering in these terrible conditions.
Please ask Monsieur Ciotti to intevene and save the animals at the Marineland Marine Park. They need our help now!

Following the death of 19-year-old orca, Valentin, at Marineland an American animal welfare charity has made an official complaint to the French government. Last week 90% of the controversial park in Antibes was flooded by the torrential rain and the tanks were polluted with flood water.

Their findings showed a high presence of fossil fuels in the water of the pools where the marine mammals are being kept.
WE MUST ACT NOW FOR THEIR WELFARE!
