Ceta-Base | Captive Dolphin & Whale Database

Welcome to Ceta-Base!

The Ceta-Base website is intended to serve as an informational resource and database of captive held cetaceans around the world. Each database or inventory is organized by species: Luga’logue (Belugas), Or’census (Killer Whales) and the Phin’ventory (Dolphins & Porpoises). By default, you’ll land on the directory page that lists parks currently house captive cetaceans (current holders). There’s also an option to view a historical park directory that lists facilities that have either closed or discontinued their display. Within each park inventory, you’ll find the inventories broken down into either living, deceased, historical, rehab or transferred animals.

Disclaimer: The information on this page has been obtained from numerous sources believed to be reliable and is as up to date as possible. Please keep in mind that the very nature of this data is dynamic – animals are moved, give birth and die. Ceta-Base and its administrator cannot guarantee the accuracy or completeness of any information contained on this site. Please be patient with any mistakes. If you would like to submit information or pictures please Contact Ceta-Base. Information that is submitted is subject to independent verification and may not be added to the site immediately.
