OMG! Two Dolphins Bubble Rings Become One Big Bubble Ring! Raymond Holmes JR 2014-06-19 | OMG! You've probably seen dolphins blow bubble rings many times before, but you most likely have never seen this before! This is something the average person can only see at a zoological park or aquarium such as SeaWorld and shows creative thinking, intelligence, problem solving skills, and cooperation between two female Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphins. At SeaWorld Orlando Calli (age 16) and Soleil (age 5) were blowing bubble rings together when all of a sudden their two bubble rings joined together and became a much bigger bubble ring! Then Haley wanted to join in and tried to add a third bubble ring to it. Watch!

Shamu Up Close Killer Whale Training Session - Behind the Scenes - SeaWorld Orlando Raymond Holmes JR 2014-03-02 | Shamu Stadium is currently closed through the beginning of April because of renovation. SeaWorld is providing a very unique opportunity to see their Killer Whales in a behind the scenes settings at their main back pool. One of the important things said in this video by one of the Killer Whale Trainers is how they train their Killer Whales and what they do if one chooses not to perform or do the behavior they ask the Killer Whale to do. That's nothing. They act boring for a few seconds and either ask the Killer Whale to do the behavior again or they move on to another behavior.
Shamu Up Close Experience Behind the Scenes Killer Whale Training Session at SeaWorld Orlando Raymond Holmes JR 2014-03-02 | Video I recorded on my cell phone at SeaWorld in February from the Shamu Up Close Experience in SeaWorld Orlando. This is an amazing, behind the scenes look at SeaWorld's 7 Killer Whales and you can see them a whole lot closer than you would during the show. Meet Tilikum, Katina, Kayla, Trua, Nalani, Melia, and Makaio. Learn about Killer Whales. Watch how SeaWorld Trainers train them how to do their behaviors on command for the shows. This is a very rare experience because you are behind the scenes in SeaWorld's main back pool. If you haven't been to SeaWorld to experience this than make sure you go in the month of March, because in April once the renovation is completed in Shamu Stadium them the One Ocean shows will resume.
