Proposal from Netherlands Antilles concerning the Bottle-nosed Dolphin

This report contains detailed information, in writing and visual, for a future dolphin project on Curaçao at the Sea Aquarium. Already for several years the Curaçao Sea Aquarium is preparing for a dolphin project to expand and complete the aquarium project. All necessary facilities are ready and the operational partner for the dolphin project on Curaçao has already 4 dolphins trained for this project. A dolphin project on Curaçao would have three goals, educational, scientific and commercial. Each goal has its own value for the population of the Tursiops truncatus and for the island of Curaçao and her inhabitants.
