I suppose there's the excuse "they did not know better" in the Old Days,but they almost killed the female dolphin for "no good reason". Then they tortured the male for their silly experiments. Love Jacques and most of his shows-I learned to SCUBA dive in the 1950's BECAUSE of his inspiration and invention-the Aqua Lung,but this show was a downer. I realize these kinds of things are necessary for research but capturing a WILD dolphin instead of using one already in captivity makes no sense and was cruel. Some marine institute surely would have co-operated if Cousteau had asked them. This entire series is dated but was great and very interesting in its day !
