Help us support the Marineland Canada animals. Our Emergency Animal Shelter App (EASApp) is being used to document the care of animals that remain at Marineland Canada.
DARTCC, Cultivate Wellbeing, and several dedicated partner organizations are working together to support the vulnerable animals still at Marineland Canada. We are dedicatedly working to uncover the exact animal count and health status of each animal stranded in Marineland. We are also reaching out to the community to forensically explore the health of animals that have recently been transferred out of Marineland to other facilities.
DARTCC will publish a comprehensive Animal Tracking Report every two weeks.
These reports will maintain public awareness and ensure transparency in this critical work. This vital data is also available to other organizations and governmental groups working toward the rescue and rehabilitation of the Marineland animals.
To receive these updates directly, please email a request to:
We urgently need your financial support.
These animals cannot tell us about their experience, but we can carefully observe and track behavior and medical statuses to better understand how we can advocate for their wellbeing.
Every dollar helps us understand the immediate and pressing needs of the animals at Marineland Canada. Please give if you can. Your donation is a direct investment in the evidence needed to save a life.
Why Accurate Data Saves Lives — Especially for Captive Animals
The days of packed crowds are over, but their confinement continues.
The days of packed crowds at Marineland are long over, but the confinement—and the crisis—continues for the animals left behind.
This video shows the conditions of Marineland, Canada as of November 2025.
Amid extended political negotiations and the policy delays of any neglect and cruelty case, it’s too easy to forget the day-to-day needs of the animals involved. Strong, accurate data and medical tracking is often their best lifeline.
Without consistent patient health and care tracking, cross-organization communication breaks down. Medical records go missing or are non-existent. Provision allocation becomes haphazard.
Since 2020, Canada’s Animal Welfare Services (AWS) has issued 33 orders against Marineland Canada. Reference 1, Reference 2
Four remain unresolved:
-
Poor water quality
-
Maintenance and repair of the water system
-
Proper record-keeping for whales and dolphins
-
Inadequate enrichment levels for dolphins, seals, and sea lions.
We are working to uncover the exact animal count, current health status, and transport readiness of every animal remaining at Marineland.
These animals cannot speak of their experience, but we can - by carefully observing, tracking, and analyzing their behavior and medical statuses - begin to understand their needs. And, begin to prepare for their rescue.
Medical recordkeeping creates the essential data tracking that allows effective advocacy for these animals’ day-to-day safety, dignity, and humane care.
The Critical Question:
What are the exact counts and health statuses of the animals remaining at Marineland today?
