Empty the Tanks Event: Selfies for Cetaceans

Mark your calendars: May 9, 2020 is the 8th Annual Empty the Tanks Worldwide Event!

This year, our global event will be a little different due to concerns surrounding COVID-19. We are canceling all public events for Empty the Tanks Worldwide 2020, but we still want to give everyone a way to spend the day advocating on behalf of captive cetaceans.

This year’s event theme will be Selfies for Cetaceans. You can go simple, or you go BIG. Get out your posters and costumes, and get creative! You can take pictures or make a short video in order to participate.

Your Captivity is Temporary – Theirs Isn’t.

Participating in this year’s Selfies for Cetaceans event is easy!

STEP 1: Check out our special #SelfiesForCetaceans event materials, and then download your favorites!

STEP 2: Take your pictures using the downloaded posters and/or masks.
*If you don’t have a printer, download the posters to your phone or tablet and hold the device up in the picture.

STEP 3: Upload your pictures to your social media pages using #SelfiesForCetaceans & dolphin.fyi/SelfiesForCetaceans!

STEP 4: Consider making a DONATION of $5 to support the Bali Dolphin Sanctuary!

STEP 5: Challenge FIVE friends to join this virtual event and to TAKE THE PLEDGE not to support dolphin captivity!

To make things even more fun, the three most creative submissions will receive a prize pack from Empty the Tanks. We can’t wait to see what you come up with for this year’s virtual Empty the Tanks Worldwide event on May 9, 2020.

We are excited to have everyone participate in this year’s Selfies for Cetaceans Empty the Tanks Worldwide event! Let’s stay healthy, get creative, and be inspired!
