July 18, 2017 is the day two dolphins that spent 20 years in a tank will finally get their freedom back. It only took 2 month to rehabilitate them as dolphins don’t forget their instincts. South Korea is proving it for the third time when Daepo and Geumdeung will swim freely in their home. The rehabilitation and release have been coordinated by Hot Pink Dolphins a non-profit organization in South Korea. In the past seven years the Hot Pink Dolphins have worked hard trying to “Empty the Tanks” through education and peaceful actions.
In 2013 an Indo-bottlenose dolphin by the name of Jedol, who was trapped in a net and performed at the Seoul Zoo, was returned to nature. There is a monument honoring Jedol and the tireless efforts by the citizens of South Korea to help get Jedol his freedom. Today, he swims happy and free with his pod. The release of Daepo and Geumdeung will make 7 dolphins that have been rehabilitated and released back into the wild in seven years as a result of their efforts! AMAZING!
