Winter the dolphin passed away yesterday.

'Dolphin Tale' star Winter, whose story inspired millions, dies at 16

The Atlantic bottlenose dolphin, who lost her tail flukes as a calf, was a beacon of hope for people with disabilities.

That’s so sad, I loved that movie. Such a fighter.

... I have no words... I'm... Im broken now... I wanted to see her so bad... That story made me get into marine biology and the animal care field... When I told my family you could tell they were really disheartened and sad... This almost brings me to tears... I honestly dont know what to say... I feel like I have so much to say but I dont know how to say it... So sad

It is so sad. It sounds like it was rather unexpected too, with her being so young. Absolutely heartbreaking. My sisters and I used to watch the movies together all the time, and always wanted to see her some day.

How old do dolphins normally live? I feel like 16 is old...

30-60, sometimes 70 years old, so she was very young.

I was obsessed with winter for years and have checked on the webcams whenever I remembered.
I was going to post this but I didn't think anyone would care.

I cried last night because it's no longer Winter, Hope, and PJ, now it's just Hope and PJ.

I hope hope and PJ are not really depressed... I havent checked the cams in a year or so... Now I wish I had been checking it more often... A singer once said: "You dont know what you have until its gone"... How true that quote is for me and for us all now...

I had never heard of PJ before! It has been a long time. Hopefully because Hope and PJ have eachother they'll be ok. Thing is, PJ is 50 according to the website so she is old.
