Dolphins are endangered

 

I was learning how to right a speech in class

I enjoyed writing my speech because I liked convincing people to save dolphins.

I found it hard to research the facts because I had to research them.

I don't think I can do anything better.

Haven't you always longed to see majestic dolphins jumping through the crystal clear water? Well I have and have even been lucky enough to see them in real life, in England. Dolphins habitat is becoming more crowded by boats, they are hunted in Japan and they are getting tangled in fishnets.  They are the most amazing animal in the ocean and I believe we need to act now and save these unique creatures. 

According to the department of conservation New Zealand is the marine capital of the world. There are 42 species of whales and dolphins in NZ.  Dolphins swim in pods mostly of 40 with there family but sometimes they are separated from their pods by fishing boats. Dolphins love to jump close to boats and swim underneath them, although this would be amazing it can be dangerous for the dolphins sometimes. I strongly urge you to be aware of dolphins when on a motor boat. If you see a pod of dolphins it is best to keep your speed to a minimum and no wake allowed within 300 meters of the pod.  So  please make sure you approach dolphins slowly and with care. 


Secondly, Hunting dolphins is not okay. Japan hunts and kills dolphins for food. It is pretty brainless as you will get poisoned by their meat. It contains mercury that is not meant to be eaten. I think that people should stop killing dolphins for their meat because it is harsh and unintelligent. 


Finally, when people go fishing their fishing nets go in the dolphins path and they get tangled in it. Imagine getting taggeld and struggling to get out and seeing your whole pod swimming off without you. When they get caught they get stuck because they can’t swim. They can't catch any food. They can’t go up for air. So they struggle and eventually die. This is torture. They are innocent creatures and they deserve to live an enjoyable life.


In conclusion, there is no question that dolphins need to be saved. Their habitats are becoming more crowded by boats, they are hunted in Japan and they are getting tangled in fishnets. We need to think about what we are doing and every move we take. Dolphins are very smart but many are becoming or are already endangered, so we need to act now. The sea and the animals that live in it is one of God’s greatest given gifts so we need to protect the ocean and its creatures.
