How many animals have died at the Miami Seaquarium? If you were to Google that question, it would tell you that more than 120 whales and dolphins have perished at the park, but that barely even scratches the surface.

This thing (which has a chameleon tongue, a regenerating tail, the ability to climb walls, is repeatedly referred to as a lizard and can be found wild in the Florida Everglades) is supposed to be a fucking Tuatara.

Since I'm talking about it, feel free to submit any and all animated ceta you know of, regardless of how obscure the media is, what species it is, or how accurate it is, if it's an animated cetacean, I want to see it!

I've been compiling every cetacean I can think of from animated media and the Wild Kratts Boto has gotta be my favourite so far. Their animal designs in general are pretty good (though there's a few ceta flops in there) but this is next level. I love him so much.

2 year old T109A3A, who recently lost their mother, T109A3 Spong after she stranded and subsequently drowned, has been given a name. kʷiisaḥiʔis, pronounced kwee-sa-hay-iss, means 'a talented and brave little hunter' in the local ʔiiḥatisʔatḥ (Ehattesaht) dialect.

The Serene Sea Center has observed a Common Dolphin 'calf-napping' an infant Harbor Porpoise from its mother for over an hour. The Common Dolphin was highly aggressive with the calf until it began echelon swimming with them, but attacked again when they tried to flee.

HUGE NEWS FROM PUNTE NORTE!! PTN-012, Antu is ALIVE! This girl was last seen in 2018 - 4 years ago - and was presumed deceased. With an estimated birth year around 1940-1950, it was thought her age simply caught up to her. But here she is!! Welcome Back Old Girl!

@ShrankFrag @zenophelion @TheLostOddity @Afoollol Also he's visited Myrtle Beach Safari and, quite notably, reshared some of the content he made there after the owner (who was featured in Tiger King) was charged for wildlife trafficking and animal cruelty. So, y'know. He supports some great people too!

I wish I could say I'm surprised that Animal Abuse Park is promoting Ableist Pseudoscience for Autism Awareness Month, but I'm really not.
