The first sanctuary for which animal/creature is being established for the first time in North America?

a. Dolphins

b. Sharks

c. Whales

d. Piranhas

ANSWER: Dolphins

Explanation:

After years of research on dolphin behavior and under pressure from animal rights groups, the National Aquarium in Baltimore has decided to move the marine mammals to a sanctuary, officials said on 15th June 2016.

It will be the first sanctuary for dolphins in North America.

The transfer from the aquarium in the Atlantic coast port city will not be done before 2020, they said.

The venue for the dolphins will be a protected coastal habitat, where the animals will continue to live under human care.
