Dolphins can not hear the noise produced by the coasters. they hear on a different frequency than humans. If you notice there trainers use dog whistles and not voice commands to call them and use hand signals for them preform behaviors.
@norcal1229 actually when i went to sea world, dolphins can't hear that. They can only hear high pitched whistles and clicks, that is why dolphin trainers use whistles to get their attention. But they can see our facial expressions. Bet you didn't know that. :P This baby is adorable. i am only 13 so i know alot about them and wanna be a dolphin trainer at marineland, florida. cuz i go there alot.
@norcal1229: I think that after the first few runs they get used to it. Kind of like when a motorcycle drives by a house on a street. You can seek comfort, however, in knowing that the rides don't run at night :-)
um quick queston (i work at the park) is helsea the same aga as merin/has she been at the park as long as he? and also in that tank where they keep maverick who are those dolphins in there with him?
@norcal1229 dolphins can live very long but dolphins in captivity die much younger there stressed out with no rollercoasters and the rollercasters make it work

Very cute. So, the baby was named Maverick and the father was Merlin... how many 'Top Gun' jokes does the park get every day!

I have not been there. Isn't there anything in their space? Plants? Toys? anything to stimulate their minds? Poor things.

Beautiful...but they shouldn't caged up like that. They need the freedom of the ocean in order to thrive.
LOL
Ayoo
