Rescued Dolphin Calf Update

After nine months of dedication, work, and 24/7 care, the male bottlenose dolphin calf rescued in June 2021 has found his forever home at a nonprofit research and education facility. The National Marine Fishery Service (NMFS) determined the Dolphin Research Center (DRC) is the best fit for the rescued dolphin. On March 25th, Ranger was loaded onto a Learjet 60 and flew directly from Corpus Christi, TX to Marathon, FL. Once he arrived at DRC, he was placed in a temporary quarantine pool to help him adjust from treated water to natural seawater.
