Winter the Bottlenose Dolphin Prosthetic Tail

The Dolphin Who Lost Her Tail but Got a Second Chance at Swimming! 🐬❤️ She lost her tail, but an extraordinary team of people helped her swim again. Winter, a bottlenose dolphin rescued off Florida's coast in 2005, lost her tail flukes after becoming entangled in a crab trap line. At Clearwater Marine Aquarium, specialists developed a custom prosthetic tail to support her rehabilitation and swimming. Her remarkable journey inspired millions and even became the story behind the movie Dolphin Tale. Winter lived until November 2021, leaving behind a powerful legacy of compassion, innovation, and animal care. Image: AI-generated artistic recreation. # #Florida
