PRESS RELEASE by Free Morgan Foundation (www.freemorgan.org) 
  
Morgan fights for freedom. 
Morgan has just been given another chance to fight for her freedom. 
With financial assistance from Sam Simon, an American director, producer,
writer, cartoonist, and philanthropist, Morgan will now have a chance to appeal
the decision denying her the right to return to the ocean. Morgan was captured
in the waters off the Netherlands, under a ‘rehabilitation and release’
permit. Mr Simon comments “Quite simply, Morgan, an intelligent, highly
social animal that used to swim 100 kilometres a day in the wild, has been
illegally abducted by the captivity industry and is now forced to perform
idiotic tricks in a bathtub. She must be returned to her family. This is
probably her last chance.”
