So what does it mean to adopt a dolphin? Oceana campaigns around the world to protect dolphins and other marine mammals. This symbolic adoption supports their proven campaigns to prevent dolphin deaths as bycatch in fisheries; stop the expansion of new offshore drilling, oil spills and seismic airgun blasting; and defend landmark legislation that ensures dolphins receive the protections they need. All donations go toward making our world's oceans healthier and safer, for generations to come.
