END DOLPHIN CAPTIVITY NOW!

Donation protected
Today, more than 3000 dolphins are held captive worldwide, forced to perform, breed and live their lives in small cement pools. Your donations will directly support our efforts to finally put an end to this cruel captivity.

At Edge Innovations, we are working to reimagine the marine park and “swim with dolphins” experiences and change the future for these social, intelligent and exploited animals.  

It is time for a paradigm shift, and we want to help create a future filled with wonder, excitement and education, but not at the expense of the animals we love so much.

Using our robotic dolphin technology and storytelling experience we can continue to fulfill the public’s desire to be entertained and educated by these magical creatures. We will go beyond dolphin acrobatics—a circus act—and deliver new types of up close and personal interactions

We have witnessed first-hand how our robotic creations for the film Free Willy helped start a global movement against orcas in captivity. And we are dedicated to using our 30 years of experience and relationships to make every one of your dollars count.  We will work with park operators and filmmakers to make marine mammal captivity a thing of the past.

Our team is led by Walt Conti of Edge Innovations, the creators of animatronics for Free Willy, Flipper, The Abyss, Disney's Avatar Land and the Jurassic World ride and Roger Holzberg, former VP/Creative Director from Walt Disney Imagineering, and the writer of the IMAX movie The Living Sea.

Join us. Lend the power of your voice. Help bring this dream to life.
