The female dolphin Winter, who inspired the films “Dolphin Tale” and “Dolphin Tale 2”, is in “critical” condition due to an intestinal problem at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium (Florida, USA), where It was taken in 2005 after she was caught in a crab trap.
The poor condition of Winter, a bottlenose dolphin whose tail had to be amputated to get it out of the trap, has led the aquarium to close its doors today and tomorrow to focus on saving it, the institution announced on social networks.
According to the aquarium, they are consulting with the most reputable veterinarians in the country to “explore all possibilities” to save his life.
Through its official Facebook page, where thousands of people around the world have left messages of encouragement for Winter, the aquarium noted that Winter began to feel ill on November 1 following a gastrointestinal infection.
“The results of the exams we received today show that, despite the treatment, his intestinal abnormalities intensified, making his condition critical,” says a message posted on the social network.
The Clearwater Aquarium appreciated the prayers and messages of support they are receiving from the millions of people Winter has inspired with her life testimonies.
The dolphin was two months old in December 2005, when it was caught in a crab trap in Mosquito Lagoon, near Cape Canaveral (east coast of Florida).

On October 10, he turned 16 and thousands of people participated in a party in which he received many gifts. (I)
