Stop Salt River Reservation from allowing captive dolphins in Arizona

The Issue

Mexico based company Ventura Entertainment ran by Mauricio Martinez del Alva is trying to open a dolphinarium in Scottsdale, Arizona. They will offer residents the opportunity to swim with captive dolphins despite the physical and psychological problems it will lead to for the creatures. There is no proper home for these dolphins except the ocean! Arizona will be a particularly bad location for them due to the excessive heat. Let's convince the Salt River Reservation officials that we do not want the dolphins in Arizona. It will be a huge financial mistake if they proceed as we will NOT be giving them our money to support animal imprisonment.
