Girl bit by dolphin while visiting SeaWorld

On Behalf of | Dec 6, 2012 | Premises Liability

For many children, a few distinct memories may account for their experiences in the first few years of life. While many events from childhood are not memorable, there are certain types of incidents that a child will probably never forget. For instance, children will likely always remember injuries like broken bones or dog bites, as these events could be traumatic.

For this reason, one young girl will most likely never forget her visit to the dolphin exhibit at SeaWorld in Orlando. The 8-year-old girl was standing next to the dolphin pool feeding the dolphins, along with many other visitors. Suddenly, the dolphin she was feeding jumped up and bit her, while taking the carton of dolphin food she was holding.
