This one is much more emotive and symbolic for me. The razor wire makes the barrier magnitudes more threatening than simple chainlink, as if they are deadly serious about keeping the dolphin captive.
Add to that the fact that they are ring-shaped, symbolic of the rings dolphins are made to jump through, and how dangerous this can be for the species.
Topping it all is the fact that he is refusing to jump THROUGH the hoop, even to make his escape, but that he's ABOVE it....

I suspect that one of the reasons you didn't go with this one was the pole, but I find it very easy to ignore. I already know the dolphin isn't alive and I don't care! :)
