The trainer was then brought to a local hospital.
"A dolphin and trainer accidentally collided in the water on Saturday while performing a routine behavior as part of the Flipper Show," a statement from Miami Seaquarium read. "This was an uncomfortable interaction for both of them and the dolphin reacted by breaking away from the routine and striking the trainer. As a precaution, Miami-Dade County safety authorities were contacted. Our family extends to include the animals in our care, our team members and our guests. While there is no apparent serious injury, a careful watch and follow-up evaluations will ensure the best care for all.
The Sunday attack is the most recent in a series of incidents being investigated by the Department of Agriculture, the report noted. In June 2021, a 17-page report was released detailing a number of animal welfare violations, which included feeding rotten fish to animals and the deaths of dolphins resulting from a faulty tank."Time is up at Miami Seaquarium, where long-suffering dolphins desperately need protection and workers are at risk.
