YOU | Spending Quality Time with Her New Friends


IN HER OWN WORDS:
Jody Shares the Story of Nicholas

"In my pics and videos of Nicholas u can see white scars on his back from 2nd n 3rd degree sun burns.. dolphins stay with their mom for 3-6 yrs to learn how to survive..the babies do everything their Mom does.. dolphins also strand themselves when too weak to swim due to illness or injury. 

Nicholas's Mom stranded herself due to pneumonia n of course Nicholas had to follow.. they were beached for a long time causing the burns.. (the water acts as a natural sun screen).. when rescued his Mom passed away 2 days later leaving Nicholas an orphan and not able to survive in the wild being only 6 months old.

It took 9 months of rehab to recover.. this was just over 14 yrs ago..today..he's a smart, funny, healthy happy boy who turns 15 in June. I've learned so much about them.. they are even smarter than anyone could imagine."
