It was hoped that this comprehensive proposal would help both parties make the right decision.<\/p>\n<p>Orca life expectancy in captivity is much lower than in the wild. In the wild, female orcas like Morgan live an average 50 years and up to 80 or even 90 years contributing to the continuity and survival of their orca community. Wild female orcas, like Morgan, might be expected to raise one to four offspring during their lifetime.<\/p>\n<p>Morgan is not the property of the Dutch government, nor of the Harderwijk dolphinarium.<br \/>It is time Morgan was released back into the wild to live her life.<\/p>\n<p>Please sign and send the email asking the Dutch government to give Morgan the chance to return home.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/dingo.care2.com\/c2c\/emoticons\/\/sign.gif\" \/><br \/><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.msplinks.com\/MDFodHRwczovL3NlY3VyZTIud2Rjcy5vcmcvdmlld19lX3Byb3Rlc3RfY29tbW9uLnBocD9lX3Byb3Rlc3Rfc2VsZWN0PTUxJiZzZWxlY3Q9NzUz\"><font color=\"red\"><b>PLEASE FREE MORGAN !<\/b><\/font><\/a><br \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i217.photobucket.com\/albums\/cc290\/philoche01\/AR\/morganorca.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><\/font><br \/>\n<strong><a id=\"myphotolink\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/photo.php?pid=405568&amp;id=126914040685075\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net\/hphotos-ak-ash1\/182639_180153845361094_126914040685075_397564_6546159_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"308\" height=\"201\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><\/strong><strong>Please join me at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.msplinks.com\/MDFodHRwOi8vYml0Lmx5L2FUUDhWVg==\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"color: maroon;font-size: medium\">Friendburst<\/span><\/a><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.friendburst.com\/advocateforsavingdogs\/\" target=\"_ blank\">Advocate for Saving Dogs\u2122<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.friendburst.com\/Animal_Rights\/\/\" target=\"_ blank\">Animal Rights<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.friendburst.com\/WeAreAllConnected\/\" target=\"blank&quot;\">\u2665We\u2665Are\u2665All\u2665Connected\u2665<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.friendburst.com\/WolfWarrior\/\">Wolfen Warriors<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.friendburst.com\/blog\/18273\/advocate-saving-dogs-list-blogs\/\"> Click Here For A Complete List Of Blogs By AfSD\u2122<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Please help free Morgan the orca !
