Fellow MARMAMers:

I am pleased to announce the publication of the 5^th edition of “The Case Against Marine Mammals in Captivity.” The 4^th edition of this white paper, first published by The Humane Society of the United States in 1995, was released in 2009. After a decade, the Animal Welfare Institute and World Animal Protection have published an updated version, released on March 8, 2019. It is available here for download: https://awionline.org/sites/default/files/uploads/documents/AWI-ML-CAMMIC-5th-edition.pdf. If you are interested in a hard copy, please contact me.
