I've been in Constanta countless times but never really got time to see the Dolphinarium that looks absolutely stunning. I would still have mixed feelings of curiosity and sadness to see animals locked inside, but it's a unique experience for sure.

Well, thats what I felt too. But I mostly went for my kid and see the microreservation, which is a little bit of a delta. It's just perfect for small kids to see it and ask questions.
I would love that part too for sure!
I know what you mean and I can totally relate but there is a difference between "just" cages and places like dolphinariums and animal circuses. Zoos, for example, might argue that by keeping animals in cages and enclosures, they protect them from predators, poachers etc. and I think some species would really be extinct by now if there were not for zoos and other similar facilities, as much as it still hurts of course to see the wild creatures being deprived of their freedom. In dolphinariums and animal circuses though, the animals are kept to be trained and perform for the visitors. So the only thing that the owners of such facilities care about is the profit. Or do you think that bears enjoy riding bicycles, tigers jumping through fire hoops and dolphins giving rides to fat tourists? I don´t think so...
I know, that's right. It's more like the thinking of how those dolphins were trained to actually perform those things. As I doubt the trainers treated them nice. I'm a overthinkwe by default, so might think about too many things and complicate things from what they usually are, so don't have too much attention on what I'm saying here lol
