The sub-adult female - one of more than 20 that beached themselves in the lower Florida Keys in early May - suffers from a curvature of the spine and although shows signs of improvement, animal experts with the National Marine Fisheries Service have determined the whale is unlikely to completely recover. The National Marine Fisheries Service chose SeaWorld as the whale’s permanent home because of the park’s expertise with pilot whales and other stranded animals. The whale was being cared for by SeaWorld experts and volunteers at the Marine Mammal Conservancy in Key Largo.
