Introducing our...Backlot Rescue Tour!

Sunday, April 24, 2022

Posted by DPMMR Staff at Sunday, April 24, 2022
Just two years ago, the entire DPMMR team sat under a tent for two days to strategize how we would navigate the challenges instigated by the Covid-19 pandemic. We discussed challenges and threats to our organization, identified problems, hypothesized solutions, and recognized missed opportunities and opportunities that should not be missed in the future.   Fortunately, these meetings fostered an idea that could solve more-than-one problem faced by DPMMR.   Now – we find ourselves si...

From the Pod-   Alfonz – This month Alfonz completed his annual physical exam and luckily has a clean bill of health! All the dolphins go through a complete physical twice a year which includes a blood sample, ultrasounds, a full body examination, and other diagnostics. Upon his full body examination, it was determined that Alfonz might be a little larger than what is considered healthy for an animal of his age and length, so we set to work increasing exercise with Alfonz and rearranging...

(The last day to purchase tickets is April 27th – so if you haven’t purchased them yet, be sure to get them before it... Read More

March 2022 - From the Field...

Wednesday, March 23, 2022

Posted by DPMMR Staff at Wednesday, March 23, 2022
Last month, we had one of our best days yet out on the water! We got off to a quick start not long after we began the survey with our first sighting. This sighting consisted of just two dolphins, likely a mother and her juvenile calf. When we sighted them, they were just slowly traveling with some longer dives. These dives made it a kind of cat-and-mouse game trying to predict where they would surface next, so we could be close enough in the boat to get the fin photos we need. Our secon... Read More
