Thankfully, Hurricane Helene only brushed THE GRASSY KEY home of the the Dolphin Research Center so 51 YEAR OLD TURSI (THE DAUGHTER OF FLIPPER) only experienced some strong winds and rain, and some extra high tides, which was much less of an impact than other parts of the Florida Gulf Coast, Georgia and the Carolinas. Tursi and the rest of the dolphins and sea lions are doing well and took the bad weather in stride. Since the DRC was lucky enough to be spared the worst of Hurricane Helene PFW’s recent donation will be applied to the completion of our Sea Lion Habitat project
