Mountains covered in snow, a rainbow and Keiko breaching again in the ocean makes the perfect picture, don't you agree?

Keiko's tank in Mexico City was 90 feet long, 43 feet wide and less than 20 feet deep.
The tank was filled with tap water from Mexico City, highly chlorinated, and bags of table salt were poured into the tank to "salinate" it. Keiko lived there from 1985 to 1996. www.keikotheuntoldstory.com/watch/

Keiko was never abandoned. He was constantly monitored by his caretakers through a GPS installed in his dorsal fin. Even when he crossed from Iceland to Norway, the team knew how deep he was swimming and for how long. Learn more about the real #FreeWilly, here: www.keikotheuntoldstory.com/watch/

Last week, a video provided by an anonymous source to UrgentSeas of a captive dolphin at Barceló Maya Grand Resort crashing to the concrete platform went viral.
If you plan to visit Mexico, we urge you to please stay away from dolphin shows and swimming with dolphins programs.
