The Dolphin Company Applauds American Humane For Conservation Documentary ‘Escape From Extinction’

Florida, United States October 28th, 2020.- The Dolphin Company family, proclaim their support of American Humane’s inaugural feature-length documentary, ‘Escape From Extinction’, opening in United States cities this month through Concert Films, LLC. The film, narrated by Academy Award Winner Helen Mirren, showcases the critical efforts certified and accredited zoos and aquariums are undertaking to preserve millions of species threatened with mass extinction.

Since 1500 A.D., more than 680 species have gone extinct, and today, one million plant and animal species are at risk of extinction. ‘Escape From Extinction’ documents the work of major zoological organizations that indeed are nature’s last arks of hope in preserving the rich legacy of life on our planet. Without this help – and the global engagement of the public – the biological treasures we hoped to share with our children and our grandchildren, may vanish within a generation. 

 “We are excited to share Escape From Extinction with theatrical audiences across the country”, said Executive Producer Dr. Robin Ganzert, Ph.D., president and CEO of American Humane. “We hope this incredible film will inspire them to take action to protect and preserve critical species on the brink of disappearing forever”.

As the owner of several sanctuaries around the world, including the United States of America, Mexico, the Caribbean islands, Argentina, and Italy, The Dolphin Company announced its support to American Humane’s documentary ‘Escape From Extinction’ due to the importance of this places that protect species in their care and try to educate and inspire people to respect animals and their environment.

“During a year in which we are navigating both a global pandemic and the catastrophic effects of climate change, we felt it was an important time to release this film as it is educational, hopeful, and will resonate with audiences of all ages”, said Director and Producer Matthew R. Brady of MRB Productions. “We are thrilled to see the great efforts that institutions, just like us, make every day to preserve species. All of them are possible thanks to the knowledge we have acquired by closely interacting with animals in human care. This is a great opportunity to learn and get truly involved in the efforts being made to protect our planet’s endangered species.” said Roberto Sanchez, Veterinarian Medicine Director for The Dolphin Company.

‘Escape From Extinction’ opened wide in theatres across the United States on October 16th.
