. well you know people did not know what it was so they said how is this possible how come there are paintings of naked people in the church i showed them the pictures and people started to understand because they didn't know what the sistine chapel was. coming from with and as you can see the canvases are very large they're full of detail i had to divide it into fourteen canvases three metres by fifty metres. at it with the fish with if you look at copying is very difficult i mean very difficult because they have to walk in michelangelo's shoes do the same brush strokes me must be to love this they said it's crazy are you crazy because really without help without being paid without nothing what are you going to do almost like it was i said. i'm very grateful to all the people who helped me i would have done hostel it on my own it's like you look at it that's the help i received from

god i did not send engines with wings but young people who supported me and felt the same way i did. i'm not moved by money i need it but i don't do things to get money it's something inside something bigger than my work because this is a moral commitment i didn't sign any papers like i've said before this is not my work it is the work of god nothing else i'm just his instrument nothing more. as much whatever they were covering right here is that al jazeera dot com. just a quick look at the top stories this hour now iran's revolutionary guard is vowing what it calls deadly an unforgettable vengeance after saturday's attack on a military parade that killed at least twenty five people iran's president hassan rouhani blame the attack in one thousand u.s. backed gulf states for providing financial and military support to opposition

little the all. out in the deep blue. sea in the oceans wild inhabitants can be a magical experience. these are a wide ranging intelligent socially complex predators you can't forget when you see an orca breach right in front of. the. head that sounds just absolutely bach and it's like they're breathing.

but these majestic creatures along with other marine life are being hunted to supply an unprecedented demand for entertainment in china what we're seeing in china is a very rapid explosive growth with big labrat marine theme parks and a lot of these places do not have the expertise to be doing what they're doing. and inside these popular aquariums we find evidence of widespread neglect and abuse. i'm steve check out on this episode a one on one as we go behind the scenes of china's marine theme parks expose the dark side they don't want to see. this film. i said i think it's a lovely day and

a thought it. he does in china. and stands for i'm a center stage i don't. i and high flying building i love the crowd. i. was. all these shows have been common in western countries for decades in china aquariums are new and exotic. places where the growing middle class can get close to wild animals and entertain. but for the animals in china's marine theme parks insiders tell us pleasing the crowd have been told. how.

good your actions with. some. of. the letter another would ensure you mean tarbush or for libel with all i was there for. over two years one on one east investigated china's multibillion dollar aquarium industry. examining more than fifteen marine parks and interviewing more than a dozen insiders we uncovered widespread abuse. knew it all before you were told this you go to ground. zero being worked at two of these koreans training seals and dolphins oh yes i've heard about one thing you want to use your judgment calls or just all clear just how close a shot. and injured chickens were as

a whole. change. to. generation deafens how there were forgeries on your p.r. for fashion and all the other lot you just don't remember how. rather than happy co-operative animals being says he found them often sick and distressed when they weren't performing he was ordered to lock seals in tiny cages and dolphins that would normally swim hundreds of kilometers a day in the wild were constrained in tiny tanks do you turn around to what i found really a chance harnesses running of the war mayhem toward sleeping how to tell you how often i sat open to come over to the window and patricia you told your children to also tell it to you. don't holler for reporters here who are the war go door for attention little talk alone because you gotta come out how do you know you always have before from the back up and running in the wrong approach

would be a poor boy. park staff tell us beating them with sticks is common practice and that's not all being says the performances are basically punishable. you tell your slit all go yeah are you a child as i had time to do for our time oh yeah. you will be a well told you sure you are strictly clear all of the real troll knows how much better no question you watch what was taught or shown to the social issues ya see is sad it is true to what you told me for the consumer in time. and a pretty miserable death. at one aquarium our investigation found a freezer full of carcasses. a secretly recorded conversation with the marine parts that reveals how he died. knowing this.

for a minute. or. the vet goes further asking to keep. high rates of premature deaths under wraps. you know. more secretly recorded footage reveals six turtles unfed and dumped in bins. we also discover arctic fox is on display in obvious distress. but. this man we'll call leader was responsible for feeding and caring for animals at a major marine park. the degree of suffering he discovered shocked him with

immunity. and she went home. for. food on. the little woman goes i've been to. one. home with. whom. to work i know you see the ocean being with you through the. bull she walked zero zero zero on the computer the words you have. zero. zero. zero zero. zero zero zero. zero zero zero zero zero zero s. also machine in. the film dozens of seals blind from cataracts and suffering from skin diseases. too sick to be shown to the public they are left in shallow dirty water in areas called dying rooms.

and. then torture. your knee and borgerson. you or. you and the abortion being go by. i'm unsure of. what she means. for the uses. recorded all. trainer being confirms what lee found and blames the blindness not only on lack of natural light but on the aquarium shows themselves. want to. rule no one was. also here potter sure. to for a walk should hall you know can always hold her door that haunt you and your on top

which we have known to. many say is the marine parks failed to provide anything close to adequate care for their animals. they have to be able to submerge and these are these guys seem to be sitting on the bottom of the tank and they're halfway out in the water. we show these images today only rose one of the world's most well known marine mammal scientists and. they're swimming in their own feces. that looks like it's like a concentration camp. they're being cruel to these animals to keep them. from and that's just cruel and it would meet the standards and. or europe. but in china there are no national laws against mistreating animals. for decades naomi's documented the treatment of captive animals around the world.

she and other animal welfare activists have visited dozens of facilities in china and say they've never seen such bad conditions. several of the facilities that i visited were very young they were only five six seven years old. and i was surprised because they look like they were thirty or forty years old both in the terms of their design was very old fashioned small sort you know circular tanks which just aren't it's not done anymore. and they were just degrading they were. resting they were chipping they were crumbling. concrete was actually crumbling in a six year old facility. and their crumbling infrastructure is having a devastating impact on the health of animals. in one case dolphins and bellew girls playing with and ingesting paint and other debris.

when they start doing this sort of. repetitive behavior with. a found object which is a in this case a paint chip which could be toxic. and is indicative of failed husbandry i mean how many times are they eating paint chips a day. it doesn't have to be a particularly toxic pain for that to become an issue. yes. through well our investigation we found an industry that publicly appears to care for animals. the way i. put it in private treats them very differently. than the four four sons all both looking for parking and. before mubarak

a member of. the. and a lot of people want to share of these profits the number of aquariums being built is growing astronomically a few years ago there are only a handful of these places in china today there are more than sixty multimillion dollar marine theme parks with about a dozen more being built. no where in else on the planet have so many marine animals been taken from the wire and put on display in. aquariums here each boast of having on average twenty thousand species of marine life. even moles are getting into the business.
