I love the very last shot, how the dolphin is turned and looking directly at you in the camera! Wow.

Thanks! The pro diving show and the dolphin show are exciting. Kids also love the sea lion act.

Gulf World Marine Park serves as the area coordinator for the Southeast Marine Mammal Stranding Network. Over the years, our stranding team has come to the aid for hundreds of marine animals. Most animals that beach themselves do so as a last resort. They are usually suffering from an injury or illness that impairs their ability to endure daily challenges. By the time they reach the shore most animals are in critical condition. This leads to a low but increasing survival rate. Gulf World is a long-term rehabilitation facility for dolphins and small whales. We also provide temporary housing and care for sea turtles. Despite the odds, we have been successful in many of our rehabilitation efforts. With every standing we respond to, we are that much closer to understanding marine animals and their environment.

Kurt, I did not know this about you. You have my deepest respect and admiration for your efforts. It is always so disturbing to me when these wonderful creatures beach themselves, but I do understand that it is usually because of an illness or injury. It's just sad though. Would love to talk to you about this sometime--it's very interesting to me. Hats off to you and Gulf World. :clap_1:
