It is time for our legal structures to reflect the existing and emerging science that shows us the impressive degree of cognitive sophistication of cetaceans. Their sentience, emotions, sense of humor, familial bonds and so much more make them deserving of fundamental legal rights of life, liberty and freedom from harm. Please recognize cetacean's moral rights and enact better protections for these incredible beings.
