It´s a Male and his name is Paco. He came in 1991 to Münster, together with a other male i think. He is now over 30 years old. Now he lives alone, besides him there are 2 male Bottelnose Dolfins and a pack of Sealions.

Animal, do you know if and if yes, when he is visable? Is it only during shows, or can you walk into the dolphinarium all the time? And is he used in the show, or is he kept behind the scenes?

He is all day shown in the House. Yust during the show with the other animals, he´s in a backgrundpool, but still visible. He also has his own part in the show, but only if he want´s to.

The Herd ist now 1,3. 0,1 of them is the last ofspring from 2003 i think. After that no breeding. Sadly I have no pics of them, but next time i´m there i´m making a few

New is the Meerkat-exhibit and the rino-outdoor. Pretty big and pretty cool. Publicway is throug the meerkatexhibit (both sides glas) and the animals can cross that over a bridge.
The great opening is in April.
