Spinner Dolphins Protected

Aloha,
As I mentioned on Sunday’s report, we didn’t have a scheduled Dolphin Watch Adventure on Tuesday (but we will on Thursday, 5/11), so with no statistics to report, I’ll just send on my Dolphin Fact of the Day!
Though Spinner Dolphins are not considered endangered species, they are protected by the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972, which means it’s illegal to “harass” them. Harassment is generally defined as doing anything that would alter the dolphins’ behaviors.
Join Ocean Sports on a Dolphin Watch Adventure. Call us at 886-6666 ext. 103 or visit www.hawaiioceansports.com for more information and reservations.
Mahalo,
Captain Claire
