Stop The Circus Protest

Join us as we demand ‘Stop the Circus’ and protest against a facility that falsely claims to be a sanctuary.

Dolphins Bella, Zippy and Jet were purposely bred, not rescued and live in tiny chlorinated pools at the misleading Coffs Coast Wildlife Sanctuary. They are forced to perform circus-style tricks every day for human entertainment.

Despite claiming to be a sanctuary, the facility subjects the animals to stressful interactions, noisy parties with alcohol and photo ops. Dolphins and seals are exploited for performances, painting, swim with dolphin programs and even inappropriate social media content, like twerking videos.
Zippy the dolphin suffers from tumours but is still forced to perform and a baby dolphin tragically died from swallowing debris in the tank.

We demand an end to this circus. The animals deserve respect and a real sanctuary.
