Source:MANILA - The Philippine authorities have reportedly given the green light for 25 bottlenose dolphins to be exported to Singapore's Marine Life Park at Resorts World Sentosa.
Animal welfare groups in the Philippines had tried to block export of the dolphins in a court case, which they lost last month.
Sunday's edition of The Philippine Star, quoting Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources director Asis Perez, said the Department of Agriculture had issued the export permit, upon the bureau's recommendation.

Further Info
Strait of Karimata and Java Sea: Tunnel, connected to Shipwreck Habitat
Shark Seas: Tunnel, with a big window beside it
Dolphin Island: should offer underwater views of the large pools outside
Open Ocean: The LARGEST exhibit!
The entrance to S.E.A. Aquarium is located within Maritime Experiential Museum. Basically, you can access the Museum if you have a ticket to the Aquarium. You'll need to walk most parts of the Upper level (Souk gallery) to get to the escalators to bring you to the actual Aquarium entrance.
Entrance to the Aquarium leads directly to the first tunnel (or you can turn left to see Shipwreck Habitat)
Shipwreck habitat
Logically, this area should be the exit. That's the Shark Seas tunnel and its larger window.
Merchandise for the Aquarium is sold at the Maritime Experiential Museum. Interestingly, the supposedly "shy" dolphins look more like sleepy (or even sad) dolphins.
Source:The 60-million-litre oceanarium will be home to more than 100,000 marine creatures of over 800 species.
And it takes some 300 staff members to keep the marine park in tip-top condition.
The park has more than 40 divers who take the plunge daily. They spend about five hours underwater, observing the creatures' behaviour and abnormalities. They clear waste, ensure the water's clean and even polish glass walls.
It's detailed work - right down to the treatment of water.
Grant Willis, Senior Curator at Marine Life Park, said: "The big thing in Singapore is temperature control. We need to make sure that it doesn't get too hot. We have chilling systems which will kick in itself when it gets too warm. The chill-out will kick in and keep it in that range. It depends on zones of habitat but roughly between 25 and 28 degrees. That's what we're aiming for."
So far, some 25,000 marine creatures have settled in.
