Clearwater mourns with the world after Winter's death

A small bouquet of flowers rested at the entrance of the Clearwater Marine Aquarium on Friday morning, hours after Winter the dolphin – whose story of resilience captured the world’s attention – died in the arms of her caretakers.

"We’re all devastated. Our staff is devastated, the world is so sad to have lost an animal ambassador that has inspired us all," offered CMA's director, Dr. James ‘Buddy’ Powell. "Her legacy will continue to live on through the work that we do. The hospital behind us will continue to save the lives of animals and inspire others. We are very grateful for what Winter brought to us."
