Finally made an account on here myself. Great to see a nice interest here. Especially with Yahoo Groups closing and BF gone (good riddance to them), my only place has to be has been on Telegram. Nice to have a forum-style place to be too! And some great discussions in here.
So, first of all, CetaceanLover23, awesome to hear that you're one of the few who have been able to cultivate such a lovely relationship. It really is a difficult task. I wish I could be by the water often enough for regular interactions with dolphins. I still intend on getting trained in scuba and next summer will strive to actually go out on dolphin excusions and such. But Florida tends to be a little restrictive on dolphin interactions in the wild. So you're left trying to do so on your own if you want to go for it. I assume it's similarly restrictive in most of the other states as well.
Will be looking forward to more discussions on this topic. I've been around a rather. I remember when Dolph's yahoo group was thriving back in it's heyday. Decided to make my name here different than the one I've usually gone by though.
