"Dolphin Bay" Visitor Exhibit at the Texas State Aquarium in Corpus Christi, Texas, USA on September 9th, 2006.
Say hello to Cobie and Shadow. Both of these Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphins lack the necessary skills to survive in the wild and are considered non-releasable. They where both transported from the National Aquarium in Baltimore to the Texas State Aquarium in 2006. They live, train, play, and exercise in the Dolphin Bay exhibit with over 30,800 square feet of dedicated space. Their man-made habitat and home contains nearly 400,000 gallons of saltwater. Dolphin Bay offers two viewing areas, one above the water and one underwater. At least twice a day, Cobie and Shadow train within the exhibit for exercise and for the visitors to enjoy. Dolphin Bay is entirely funded by private donations. No tax, municipal, state, or federal dollars are used. If you're ever near Corpus Christi in the Gulf of Mexico, be sure stop by and say hello to Cobie and Shadow.

@Texas00ful So Shadow is still alive and currently at the Aquarium? That's great! Would like to visit again to see Shadow up close!

That's too bad about Shadow :-( This was our first trip to the Aquarium back in 2006. However, I'm still glad that we got the footage that we did get!
