They consider modifying behaviors that are problematic for the animals to learn. The dolphins also congregate at the edge of the pool, and Cobie clicks and splashes as if putting in his two cents. By late October, the show is ready for member previews. Surveys tell the show team how future audiences might react, and whether or not the message is loud and clear. Video and live narration describe their anatomy as well as the behaviors and adaptations that allow them to survive in their ocean environment.
People learn about dolphins in many ways.
The new show's narration makes clear the importance of the Aquarium's Marine Animal Rescue Program in providing scientists with information about the lives of dolphins in the wild and the problems they face. Caring for dolphins at the Aquarium is also a learning opportunity. As the trainers explain how veterinary exams are conducted, they invite one lucky member of the audience to come to the side of the pool and inspect a dolphin's mouth, skin, blowhole, and fluke. The more people understand about these winsome marine neighbors, the more they'll appreciate the importance of ocean conservation and the need to reconsider their own behaviors. For dolphins, a healthy ocean would be the biggest thrill of all.
