Dolphin was born to mother 'Serena' August 21, 2006.

First recorded and confirmed successful (live) baby dolphin born in the Dominican Republic, according to Ocean World's knowledge.

Their females are just now getting into breeding age, it will be the first of many. In the Bahamas, they had two dolphin babies born in the last 4 weeks (including the first baby from a baby born at the facility), they have already 10 born there and they expect the same record here.

The name has not been decided, since they don't know if its a male or female yet. They are thinking of doing a naming contest with local schools with the winning kid getting their class a free day at Ocean World.

That is adorable, I don't think I've ever seen a baby Dolphin even in Niagara Falls.
