The first few months that she was out at RPP she would not come over to the interaction side, but as she got used to the place she started to become a very interactive dolphin. I have had many wonderful interactions with her. She plays with water, and she stays for long periods of time for pets. She had been moved to animal care for a couple of months before she was moved to DIP, which is where she is now. She is one of the dolphins in DIP that is used most often.
Physical description: She is a gorgeous dark slender dolphin with a beautiful dorsal fin. Her fin is very triangular and smooth. She has a slender build, with a slender head and rostrum. She is kind of speckled with faint white dots all over her body.
Dolphin you may be most likely to confuse her with: Cometta, the two were never out at RPP together but if they were ever together they would be easy to confuse. Ripley is smaller and darker.
