Description
Clearwater Marine Aquarium announced the death of one of its Atlantic bottlenose dolphins that teams have been treating since 2021 after being found stranded.
Apollo, who was 4 years old, was found stranded on Playalinda back in May 2021, the aquarium said in a tweet. He was found with health challenges including parasites on his dorsal fin, pectoral fins and fluke along with stomach and lung inflammation.
The dolphin was also determined to have "significant hearing loss," which made him non-releasable.
