BreakingNews·191006 - TripAdvisor停止出售海豚表演的门票

One of the world's leading travel websites, TripAdvisor, has decided to stop selling tickets to attractions and aquariums that have marine creatures like dolphins, orcas, porpoises and whales. One top attraction that TripAdvisor will not sell tickets for is SeaWorld in Florida. A TripAdvisor spokesperson said the ban is a continuation of the company's 2016 policy that prohibited sales of tickets to attractions where tourists come into physical contact with animals, like elephant rides. TripAdvisor halted ticket sales to "demeaning animal shows and performances" in 2018. The latest ban applies to any attractions that "contribute to the captivity" of dolphins, orcas, porpoises and whales.

世界领先的旅游网站TripAdvisor决定停止向有海豚、逆戟鲸、小海豚和鲸鱼等海洋生物的景点和水族馆出售门票。TripAdvisor最受欢迎的景点之一是佛罗里达州的海洋世界(SeaWorld)。TripAdvisor的一名发言人表示，这一禁令是该公司2016年政策的延续，该政策禁止在游客与大象等动物有身体接触的景点出售门票。2018年，TripAdvisor停止了“贬低动物表演”的门票销售。最新的禁令适用于任何“有助于囚禁”海豚、逆戟鲸、鼠海豚和鲸鱼的景点。

A TripAdvisor spokesman elaborated on his company's new initiative. He said: "Whales and dolphins do not thrive in limited captive environments, and we hope to see a future where they live as they should - free and in the wild." He added: "We believe the current generation of whales and dolphins in captivity should be the last, and we look forward to seeing this position adopted more widely throughout the travel industry." A SeaWorld spokesman said: "We are disappointed by TripAdvisor's new position that ignores the educational value and conservation mission of professionally accredited zoos and aquariums....SeaWorld maintains the highest standards of care for all animals."

TripAdvisor的一位发言人详细介绍了该公司的新举措。他说:“鲸鱼和海豚在有限的圈养环境中无法茁壮成长，我们希望看到它们未来能自由自在地生活在野外。”他补充说:“我们认为，目前这一代圈养的鲸鱼和海豚应该是最后一批，我们期待着看到这一立场在整个旅游业得到更广泛的采用。”海洋世界的一位发言人说:“我们对TripAdvisor的新立场感到失望，它忽视了专业认证的动物园和水族馆的教育价值和保护使命……海洋世界保持着对所有动物的最高标准的照顾。”
