SeaWorld Orlando Rescue Team Aids with Hearing Test for Rescued Dolphin

SeaWorld Orlando’s Animal Rescue Team has been caring for a rescued male bottlenose dolphin since November 30, 2016. The animal was brought to the SeaWorld Orlando Rehabilitation Center after being found stranded in Sanibel, Florida.

Last week, SeaWorld’s veterinary team assisted a representative from the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) with a hearing test on the dolphin. NOAA conducts hearing tests on all stranded cetaceans to confirm their ability to hear and echolocate. Dolphins use echolocation to help them find food, navigate through their environment and socialize with other dolphins. The use of echolocation is crucial for their survival in the wild. The hearing test is a critical step toward the ultimate goal of returning him to the wild.    




The test showed the dolphin can hear and the team remains hopeful he will continue to improve. Since his arrival the dolphin has been eating on his own and has shown a steady increase in weight, important steps in the total rehabilitation process.
