Dolphins ''rescued'' from freedom


The aftermath of Hurricane Katrina hasn't just affected people. Several dolphins were washed out of their aquatic condominiums and into the open waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Two of the dolphins were rescued, but others remain at large.. er.. missing.

Two dolphins that were swept from their aquarium tanks into the Gulf of Mexico by Hurricane Katrina were rescued Thursday, but six others remained at sea.

The two dolphins were rescued after scientists in a boat coaxed the trained animals into sliding onto mats.

The "rescued" dolphins were put into temporary housing in a hotel swimming pool.

John, no, but if they've been in captivity long, I bet they missed their daily welfare handouts. (Feeding, that is.)
