![]() Copan and the Coast Guard Good morning all, just to tired last night to play on the computer so I am up at 5:30 to do it now. I recently mentioned in one of my dolphin blogs that our dolphins when they go outside into the open ocean like to surf the front of boats that are passing by, here’s one such recorded case. I think this was last year, we had just taken our big male Copan out for a morning dive. Well Copan immediately headed out to play with the Coast Guard that was passing by before he came to play with us. The Coast Guard boys didn’t even know he was there for the longest time until a bunch of us on shore started waving our hands franticly and pointing for them to look at the front of the boat. They knew something was wrong so they slowed down and then spotted him as you see here then turned around and brought him back to us. Copan was in no danger, he was just playing but it always gives your heart a little jump start to see him out in front of another boat. Someone also asked about wild dolphins and if we ever see them? The answer is yes and each morning before we take the dolphins out we do a trip in the boat to patrol the coast for wild dolphins. One time Annie (dolphin) was out doing a dive and a pod of wild dolphins came by, that turned into quite a spectacle. The wild dolphins came right up to us and kind of chased Annie back into our lagoon they really wanted her to come out and play but she stayed close like a good girl.
