Hope Nikki uses the ones from FB, when the dolphins arrived in Hisaronu and were man-handled out of a fruit & veg van  :o

It's not that I find so depressing. What really disappoints me is we see Turkey showing it's ill informed critics that it is becoming a real player - hosting the Champions League final, getting on the F1 diary - amazing progress and modern, cutting edge cities.

Then people who think it is a backward nation take a chance on Turkey and rather than seeing glitzy Istanbul or somewhere bustling like Izmir, they just by chance end up half way up a mountain in Hisaronu - where their bigoted views of primitive life are confirmed as they open their curtains and see two magnificent full size dolphins bobbing around in a small swimming pool between the central area bars of a Magaluf style holiday resort.

You simply couldn't write it. Everything they do, everything we all do to promote Turkey as a place totally unlike newcomers preconceptions heads down the pan because nobody stood up and said "no".

Have joined the page and invited many people to join.
The pictures are so heartbreaking it's indescribable, I couldn't help but cry. After all the work that goes into protecting the sea turtles I was under the impression that such work would go into dolphins too.
