Very impressive age! She's actually the fourth oldest. I say fourth because I'm counting in the pilot whale at SeaWorld in California (they are technically the largest dolphin after orcas). If anyone's interested, you can scroll down to the bottom of this page and you'll see a section where it says "Most Years in Human Care". |

| What a wonderful age! R.I.P Nellie! What is the average age for wild dolphins to live in the wild? _________________ Kelsey [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]"Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened." ~Anatole France |
