Yeah not very nice. However like Thoughts said, sometimes they need a sanctuary and then it costs money to look after them therefore it makes sense to make money for the upkeep.
Not always the case though, I watched a documentary, never thought of dolphins much but apparently they are imported from those pretty islands. A lot of them die through the process from being captured to being held in small, unsuitable and sometimes dirty enclosures, then the transportation and finally them not being able to adapt to their new environment.
Something like that is just not necessary. Traumatising an animal and killing many more simply because we want to laugh at their tricks. Then people come out with "I love dolphins". Then stop treating them like that!

Off topic have you seen this?
No I haven't, looks interesting though and slightly depressing

Zoos aren't as bad as the circus though
