Famous Florida dolphin found dead, people feeding him thought to be the cause.
Feeding dolphins is a problem that most tourists seem to be completely unaware of. Even when told of the dangers that it presents to these ocean-dwellers, people persist in their thinking that just a few bites won’t hurt. But the problem lies in the fact that every tourist is thinking the same way and the dolphins end up eating “just a few bites” from dozens of people every day.
Worse yet, some of these people are so lacking in common sense that they feed dolphins things like hot dogs, beer, cupcakes and all manner of strange things. This isn’t exactly the healthiest diet for a human, let alone a dolphin. Now, the world’s most famous begging dolphin has been found dead, a victim of what many think is that tourist tendency to feed him.
