Aquatic captivity refers to the practice of confining aquatic animals, such as fish, dolphins, whales, and other marine creatures, in captivity for various purposes, including entertainment, research, and conservation. The process of capturing and transporting aquatic animals for captivity can also be highly stressful and damaging. The capture of wild dolphins or whales often involves aggressive and traumatic methods, leading to injuries and sometimes even death. This disruption to natural populations can also have long-term ecological consequences.
