FILE - In this Nov. 2, 2010, file photo, Ric O'Barry, a leading global dolphin activist whose efforts to save dolphins is documented in the Oscar-winning film "The Cove," speaks to the media in Taiji, western Japan. O’Barry, the former dolphin trainer for the “Flipper” TV series and the star of an Oscar-winning documentary about dolphin killings in Japan, was detained Tuesday, Jan. 19, 2016, by immigration authorities at an airport near Tokyo. Immigration officials declined comment, saying it is their policy not to comment on individual cases. O’Barry’s lawyer Takashi Takano said he has appealed the decision, and a decision from the Japanese government is expected in the next few days, with deportation a possibility.
