Under our data, Dolphinarium Nemo in Yerevan violates water usage systems and takes water from the network while not paying the appropriate amount. If to pay attention to the fact that sea animals jump out of the water on the board where circulating system is missing, under approximate calculations, about 30% of the water needs replenishment. This happens at the expense of drinking chlorinated water. According to the information we have, one of the dolphins started having problems with his vision, he is almost blind but he is still kept with other animals fearing of publicity.
“Ecological Academy” NGO Chairman Greta Gabrielyan thinks drinking water contains chlorine and as it is an aggressive element, it must impact on the health of the animals, especially on eyes.
It should be noted the company denied all the allegations in its address, but without filing any proof. The company’s statements that animals are healthy and circulation system operates normally, while water passes through filters would sound more convincingly, if there were any official conclusion on the checkup of each dolphin or “Jerevanjur” inspectors’ conclusion on the amount of used water and its replenishment source, water meter indices etc.
