    The Seoul GP zoo is releasing one of it's 3 bottlenose dolphin.
    The female Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphin, which had been at the zoo since 2009, was flown by a special charter jet to the southern island of Jeju accompanied by an 11-member team of veterinarians and zoo keepers.
    The zoo decided to return "Jedol" to the wild but keep the two others because they were too old and weak to be released.
