Animal experiences?

I’m wondering which cruise would be the best fit for me, I have a thing for wildlife encounters of any kind really. So I’m wondering if there is a cruise that is sort of geared towards toward or would have the most stuff like swimming with dolphins/sharks, petting/feeding animals, or really anything that has to do with any animals sea or land. Just looking to see what’s out there and if anyone has recommendations.

Edit to add: I forgot to mention I’m from the U.S. so preferably one that would depart from the states

Not directly answering your questions, but might get somebody suggesting Roatan. Recently the government of Honduras has restricted animal encounters, so you can no longer hold or touch the sloths, monkeys, etc. so, that's no longer a viable option.

Yes and thank goodness they did. These animal encounters were profiting the humans but harmful to the animals.

I would recommend the Galapagos or the Amazon.

Stay home and pet your cat/dog.

Go to a local farm or animal shelter. "Swim with wildlife" stuff is often harmful for the animals. Stick to domesticated pets if you care about animals.
