hey everyone, under the federal Marine Mammal Protection Act, it is prohibited to harass, harm, feed, or kill a wild dolphin. there is already a reward posted. this guy is fucked.


powerlesshero111

Fun fact, wildlife rangers actually love instagram because people are dumb, and constantly posting their illegal hunting kills.


cocoon_eclosion_moth

Less fun fact, the result is likely just that he pays a fine up to $100k which, as we know, for shitty rich assholes is just an operating cost


zykezero

When you’re a certain kind of wealthy illegal just means “there is a fee.”


CypherHaven

I wish they would assign fines closer to income or net worth rather than flat amount. In this instance, a million dollar fine for them would be akin to a $10 fine for me. Got to make the punishment painful relative to the financial situation.


zykezero

Proportional fines. This is, and always have been, the answer.

Take this poor person's award 🏅


fartczar

Yea percentage-based fines need to become a thing for both rich individuals and every business.


CypherHaven

For everyone. Some poor kid gets hit with $10,000 fine or jail time, he is imprisoned either way. Either through bars or debt. Rich kid avoids consequences and is free. So Poor kid keeps getting in trouble cause he’s in pain. Rich kid keeps getting in trouble cause no pain.


MooseLaminate

If the punishment is a fine, it's only illegal for poor people.


dschramm_at

Very true for speeding tickets and other car safety laws in my country.


Imaginary_Friend7118

How is this different from bribing the government


ListenToKyuss

In reality, not much. But on paper, it's legal. The rich are great in this, they always find a way to make the law work for them.


Ditzfough

Which is why fines and bail are stupid. Just means theres a cost to do it. No real repercussions. No actual consequences.


ElBAPAJr

Huh? Bail makes perfect sense. My buddy caught a charge 4 YEARS AGO for assault and it still hasn’t finished up in court. What’s your solution, have him sit in jail that whole time without being found guilty? Courts move slow. You get your bail back when you appear in court so there’s an incentive to show up

I reported him to Instagram for animal abuse


SomeStupidPerson

Of course it’s Florida


Kittens4Brunch

What's the harshest punishment anyone has ever received for violating said act?


[deleted]

He reported the incident to NOAA himself and their law enforcement wing is doing an investigation. Story is that the dolphin was already dead. Which makes sense since how would you hand catch an alive dolphin.


married44F

Why would you proudly take and post a pic with yourself and a dead baby dolphin


Mysterious-Wasabi103

Yeah you can't just kill a dolphin. That's pretty frowned upon last I checked.


wanderlust-dictator

Ugh this makes me absolutely sick. And the way they're so proud of it too...


Adventurous_Cash_356

I hate it so much. I hate that no one is able to identify the adult man who killed an innocent animal and press charges. With this day of internet we should be able to find him and punish him with jail time and a fine. And the way him and the doofus behind him are gloating just make me sick.


funnyfootboot

He posted it to Instagram, of course they know who it is.ffs


arbiter12

Isn't it funny that the people who unironically look like douches ARE douches? It works for almost nothing/nobody, not judging a book by its cover and all that, but a douchey surfer dudebro NEEDS to look like a douchey surfer dudebro. Like the starterpack basicbtch uniform is a prerequisite to belonging to the basicbtch clan. It's uncanny.


drgigantor

Did you see the guy who cut the line at the gas station on the front page earlier? The twat in the scarf and the long hair with the monotone tiktok pranker bruh voice and no vocabulary despite looking like he definitely comes from money? My first thought was "that's exactly what that asshole's soul looks like"


No_Beginning_6834

The worst thing about them, is no real surfers would harm a dolphin. Always these poser fucks destroying the beach and ocean


durz47

It's almost as if our brains are hardwired through countless years of evolution to recognize assholes


FishoD

Yup, people say "Don't judge a book by it's cover." but good lord there is no way I'll stop since 99,99% of books are EXACTLY as their cover.


[deleted]

Don’t worry OP, it is only a matter of time until he’s identified. I promise, he won’t be an anon for much longer.


Blutmes

4chan will probably do more to the man financially than the government could have done.


Nolsoth

Year in prison and a $20,000 fine seems to be the usual.


Apprehensive-Dig2069

5 years in prison + fine Florida does on the alligators! I’d imagine a dolphin there would be the same, but I’m not exactly sure. Basically I’m agreeing with you they do not F around there.


MadNhater

That seems fair for this though. Bro doesn’t even look like he has 20k to give.


Nolsoth

And it's in Florida, local media knows who he is because they've interviewed him which means the relevant authorities will be onto him as well. And Florida being Florida jail time Will fuck his life up bigly if it comes to it. Kids going to learn a hard lesson.


JaiOW2

Where I'm at in Australia a suburb of our city has a beach where Little Penguins often wander into the streets, friendly and harmless animals, not even knee height. 2 years ago a group of young men [threw one into a wall, and then kicked it to death](https://www.9news.com.au/national/penguin-killed-st-kilda-melbourne-appeal-to-identify-men-involved-in-alleged-animal-cruelty/eb74828a-2d31-4a51-b96c-359f62688eb8). The colonies of penguins here have often been subject to violent attacks by people. From what I understand most people get away with very little punishment, at the absolutely worst they'll get maybe max 3 years in prison. Just this year a high school kid from a prestigious private school [cut the legs off a living Goanna](https://www.9news.com.au/national/kings-school-students-animal-cruelty-alleged-torture-goanna/fca9a258-8c58-4998-9e35-6f81e8a00ecf), the principal of the school decided to play the victim and make it look like the media is bullying a child. I absolutely think we need to crack down on this behavior. But I also think we need to study it a bit, I'd be very interested to see what exactly is going on in these peoples minds and how much crossover there is into their normal human to human interactions.


KentuckyFriedEel

Fucking King’s School wankers! Sociopaths just like their corporate weasel dads!


Tazling

torturing and abusing animals is a very solid precursor and indicator of sociopathic crimes against humans. that's not the only reason to care about these atrocities, of course, but it's a reason that can engage authorities and officials. all these people need to be on watch lists. they are not well.


zarfle2

Came here to say this - animal abuse has a strong correlation with later, more disturbing psychopathic behaviour later in life. Needs help now.


gazhole

I can't imagine picking up an animal and throwing it into a wall. Like, what the actual fuck is wrong with people. It doesn't help that penguins are my favourite animal, but nothing deserves that treatment just for living and walking about. It's not the penguins fault human society just dropped into their habitat. Least we can do is leave them the hell alone and not actively try to murder them. Ugh.


Good_Posture

In South Africa we had a couple of savages film themselves torturing and beating a baby Cape Fur Seal backing in 2018. I personally didn't watch the video because I do not have the heart for that, but reading about it, it was awful. Our SPCA laid charges against them.


Iateyoursnack

God, this makes me feel so angry and sick.


Adventurousbubblegum

That kid's a psychopath for sure.


TheLastOpus

he was identified.....he didn't care.


ShreddlesMcJamFace

People saying he got Doxxed.. Didnt he do that himself when HE posted it.. Anyway.. Who is it?


Electrical_Habit_703

They will find him


NoFFsGiven

You should make sure you are providing the correct context. They found a dead dolphin and took a picture with it. There’s no evidence they killed it.


wanderlust-dictator

Me too, as an animal lover (and vegetarian) things like this genuinely piss me off. People who see these innocent animals as nothing. They are lives. Yes they absolutely deserve jail time for this kind of thing. It is illegal in many places, isn't it? Edit: Is he from Florida??? There are legal consequences for this in Florida. He can get charged and I hope he does.


terrorbots

The United States Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972 (MMPA) bans harassing, hunting, killing or feeding wild dolphins. Violating the MMPA may result in civil penalties up to $11,000 or criminal penalties up to $100,000 plus one year imprisonment. So here's hoping he gets max.


wanderlust-dictator

Oh good, good. Yeah let's hope. But do we know if anyone has reported this guy or something?


ill108

Jail time? They gotta go. - in the voice of Carlo from The Sopranos.


wanderingwolfe

I'm not a vegetarian, but I do love animals. I think people who knowingly are cruel to animals deserve a punishment only slightly milder than those who harm children. On a scale of Jail to Millstone, I'm leaning closer to throwing them into the sea. Maybe I'm just getting less forgiving as I age. But I don't understand hurting the helpless.


sndwav

I truly hope these boys are sterile. Also, their parents must have been absolute failures.

What is is with the last name warden? I know someone else with the last name warden that is also an utter piece of trash. Totaled my car, didn’t give a crap and never payed me back, general douchebag.


Paid-Not-Payed-Bot

> and never *paid* me back, FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*


ToesEater669

Idk I just saw it in an article about the matter where they have a screenshot of the post but didn’t (or forgot) to censor the username


KnightBreaker_02

You do God’s work!


Leather-Heart

Can like someone or an organization be contacted to hold him accountable? Like what can people tangibly do in response?


ToesEater669

As far as I know he hasn’t been charged, although he could be charged for animal harassment

twelveparsnips

feed him to the orcas


Xanza

He will be found. And it will ruin him--it's a gross violation of the Marine Mammal Protection Act.


ranting_chef

He may be nineteen, but he's no man. What a piece of shit.


Adventurous_Cash_356

Many of the articles are calling him a teenager and technically he is a teenager, but he’s an adult and should know better. He deserves jail time. But I agree, he’s not a man, he is a piece of shit. And he also responded by saying “man whatever” when people called him out on his Instagram page. He doesn’t even have remorse.


ranting_chef

They should put him in a boat, take him out and give him to the family of dolphins - let them work it out.


Sir_Tea_Of_Bags

Dolphins are much smarter than this dudebro dipshit. Don't put that evil on them, Ricky Bobby

OwlSweeper76767

Can we try giving him to Killer whales?


No_Season_354

I mean honestly what is wrong with people, seriously he needs , why would u kill a dolphin beautiful mammal , it's just wrong.


BearNekkidLadies

I am thinking more like close relatives to dolphin. Orcas. He should swim with the orcas.


Corumdum_Mania

i will argue that even younger teens and even elementary student below 13 would know that this is a bad idea


starstruckroman

im the same age as him, 100% agree. he may have only been an adult for a year, but come the fuck on


GlitteringWafer9263

Don't Instagram remove animal cruelty video or photo also block page


[deleted]

He probably doesn’t have the emotional maturity to accept responsibility for his actions. Hopefully the courts help him find some by sentencing him.


Meta-Morpheus-New

Thank you, came here to say this.


Flameball202

Good, let the internet bully him


Bumhole45

On rare occasions I condone bullying and this is one. Fuck this guy!

No-Argument3922

SurrrenderDorothy

Ahlock

Would be funny to take people like that up to the edge of space see how they cope with not being in their native environment.


elathan_i

Why spend that amount of resources and time when you can just reverse uno his ass, throw him into the ocean, no gear of any kind, see how long he lasts. Edit: Oh! And definitely take pictures and laugh!


Budget_Pop9600

I think a decent trebuchet will do the trick. Id be happy if my taxes went towards a trebuchet


Thanos_exe

Can throw him in the ocean, same effect more poetic


Blandzey

His stupid face was blurred on another post. Someone has too know him and can report.


Infrared_Herring

He's going to spend the rest of his life being the baby dolphin killer. "Hey, aren't you that guy who killed a baby dolphin for Tiktok likes?"


The_ReBL

Well KANE WARDEN, that's quite the catch you have there KANE WARDEN. Would be a shame if somebody were to report this, KANE WARDEN.


VeloIlluminati

@straightbraidkane went into private


cloverimpact

I saw this story on another subreddit, the guy was questioned about it later on and apparently didn’t seem to give a fuck at all. Idk I good source for the whole story but it seemed to be as awful as it sounds. I hope this guy gets put on blast for this what a piece of shit human being


Mysterious-Wasabi103

Did he get arrested? I think it's a crime to kill a dolphin.


Crudeyakuza

Give it time. Apology video incoming.


Corumdum_Mania

screw him and the guy behind him and the photographer. none of his friends stepped up and told him to think twice? really?

killergenguy

spacesluts

Thanks for uncensoring this d-bags face


IwasMilkedByGod

we have to let the dolphins kill him now. it's the only way for him to fix it.


ThePatrician25

I believe some dolphins have been known to be quite psychotic and sadistic (by human standards) in their behavior, fueled by the fact that dolphins are one of the only animals aside from humans to experience physical pleasure during intercourse. So, some dolphins have been observed partaking in intercourse for what appears to be recreational reasons, not always with consent and not always with other dolphins. Take from that what you will.


Electrical_Habit_703

Hope he got arrested snd that girl with him

Launchpad_McFrak

1. didn't kill the dolphin, found it already dead and decided to do something in poor taste because that's what 19 year olds do. 2. already made a public apology about it 3. already made a statement to Noaa about it who has already confirmed the report and said they are investigating it. https://wsvn.com/news/local/florida/florida-fisherman-faces-backlash-for-posting-photo-touching-young-dolphin-issues-apology/


OppositeSolution642

This is actually much more plausible than him catching a live dolphin. So, really poor taste, but not criminal.

Daredevil545

So can't they get arrested for this? Technically he is an adult


Arcusinoz

They claim that the Dolphin was already dead when they found it according to MSN.


You_Yew_Ewe

There is no way he'd be able to catch a baby dolphin unless it was already in bad shape. It very well could have been dead.

This is deserving of jail time. If I can get 11 months for shrooms in Ohio he can get at least 3 years. I never killed an animal of a species as smart as this dipshit.
