LET'S STOP TO WATCHING ANIMAL SHOWS!
RETURN TO THE SEA!
Picture Book
about
Project Objective
I want to use my picture book to let people know that animal performances are very cruel to animals even though we watch them very happily. Animal performance means that through human training, animals make actions and behaviours that go against their natural instincts to achieve the purpose of entertaining the audience. In the process of animal training, violations of animal welfare and even cruelty to animals can be seen everywhere.
Project background
Animal performance means that through human training, animals make actions and behaviours that go against their natural instincts in order to entertain the audience. In the process of animal training, violations of animal welfare and even cruelty to animals can be seen everywhere. Animal trainers sometimes use "punishment" methods to train animals, such as not providing food, whipping, etc., to force animals to perform actions that please humans. The lighting and noise of the performance venue are also one of the factors that endanger animal health.
Target Audience
Primary - Children ( 6 - 12yrs )
Secondary - Young adults ( 17 – 25yrs )
Project idea
The Idea is from a killer whale named Tilikum.
He was separated from his family in 1983 when he was captured off the coast of Iceland at the age of two and taken to an aquarium. But he passed away due to illness in 2017.
But its suffering lasted more than 30 years. For 30 years he has been trained by the aquarium to perform, living every day in a small tank with the amount of water that a wild orca moves in the ocean in a single day. This leads to his insanity. Tilikum once tried to kill his trainer.
He has been trained since he was sent to the Aquarium. He had been living in a pool that was only a circle larger than himself, and his mental condition had gradually become abnormal. He never returned to the sea until his death.
About
Story
Noah is a magical elf bred by nature. He stays in the forest every day and decides to explore the human world except the forest.
It walked and walked to a place called the aquarium. There it met the killer whale Liam. Liam was sent to this aquarium last year. After that, he kept receiving training that he shouldn't have received every day, just to please the tourists here. Finally, Noah used magic to rescue Liam and sent him back to the sea.
