Griffith

Griffith is a 19-year-old bottlenose dolphin living at SeaWorld Orlando. Griffith was born at SeaWorld San Diego on August 1, 1996 to Melanie and Crunch. Griffith was sent to Discovery Cove on April 2, 2000. In 2003, Griffith was sent to SeaWorld Orlando. Griffith began giving birth to calves after arriving in Orlando. She probably arrived in July or August, since it is likely she mated that month. She became pregnant in August 2003, and on August 18, 2004, she gave birth to Scott, sired by Duncan. On October 12, 2007, Gala was born to Griffith and Hekili. Hekili is the probable sire of her third calf, Gus, born on December 26, 2009. On June 21, 2013, Griffith gave birth to her fourth and final calf, Gertrude. In 2015, Griffith's oldest daughter, Gala, was sent to Discovery Cove. Gus was sent to Gulf World Marine Park with Turk and a rough-toothed dolphin named Stan on December 7, 2015. Scott was sent behind the scenes at SeaWorld Orlando in February 2016 after Dexter and Rascal arrived. She also became matriarch of the Dolphin Cove pod.
