Marinelands are entertainment companies whose main stars are marine mammals. Based on fieldwork conducted in a European aquatic park, this paper analyses how such a company deals with the many affects and emotions that intersect there: the dolphins’, the public’s, the trainers’ and the anti-captivity activists’. The first part of the paper shows that parks are engaged in a deliberate policy of affects that is used to legitimate captivity, in an international context that is globally unfavourable to it.
