Our first dolphin encounter in Piran Bay this year

On February 4th, just off Piran, we encountered several familiar fins that Morigenos has been monitoring for many years. Among them were Galatea, Olaf, Natali, Neptun, Unagi, Saša, and many others. We have known some of these dolphins for nearly 22 years. We were especially happy to see that our / your “rescuee” Srečko (Lucky) was in the group. If you don’t know his story yet, you can check it out here.
We were also particularly excited to capture young dolphins on camera. This is encouraging, as some calves do not survive their first year. As some of our loyal followers may recall, last summer we reported on a “baby boom,” but at the time, we were uncertain about its outcome. While we know that some calves did not make it through their first year, we are happy that many did.
Thank you for following our journey! If you’d like to support our efforts in protecting these incredible creatures, you can make a donation here or adopt a dolphin here.
