The bottlenose dolphins, including one young and very rare albino dolphin worth millions, will be kept until the brutal selection process of the aquarium industry begins on January 18. Those that arent taken to perform in shows will either face death by spear, or a gory corral back into the sea with their community much thinner and a lot weaker.
