Hi Everyone!
I don't know how many of you have been following Morgan the orca's situation (http://www.freemorgan.com), but after the death of the oldest beluga at our Vancouver Aquarium, I have hit my boiling point.
I believe that we as mermaids and have a responsibility, the greatest responsibility in fact. Not all of you may agree with me, but I know deep in my heart that we all believe that the ocean is our home and it is our greatest gift. I think it is time that we take a stand against the atrocities being committed against our home and the spirits we share it with.
There are enough of us out there now that together we really could make a change! We could mean the difference between a life in a concrete prison or a life of freedom out in the open ocean for an orca like Morgan.
Humans failed our beluga Kavna and I don't want to see this ever happen again!
Mermaids like Hannah Fraser, Dana Mermaid, Mermaid Kariel were the start of something big. They inspired us all to follow our dreams and take our passion for the ocean to the limits of our imaginations.
Now it's time to put our tails together and stand up for our ocean world. It is time to take action and use every day to find a way to help. Even if all you can do is send out an email, make a phone call or pick up an extra piece of litter. Even the smallest gesture can make a difference!
There are so many organizations out there trying to help, but the way I feel is who better than a group of mermaids?
I have been wanting to start a group for some time and I want to know who among you would be interested in helping me? Would any of you be willing to stand with me and help put a stop all of this?
If we don't do something soon, it will be too late.
I know this was quite the epic speech, but I feel very strongly about this and really hope that we can all work together to make a change for the better. I was going to call this group Tails Together. I would make a site for it and a forum potentially. I would hope that we could do things like start petitions, create artwork with a message, send out emails, participate in beach clean ups and in general spread the word about ocean conservation in any way we can!
Thank-you for taking the time to read this you guys! If you are interested in helping, please comment below. I would be happy to read any suggestions or other comments you might have as well.
Mermaid Hugs!
