âDolphin Tale 2â continues the story of the brave dolphin Winter, whose miraculous rescue and recoveryâthanks to a groundbreaking prosthetic tailâmade her a symbol of hope and perseverance to people around the world and inspired the 2011 hit movie âDolphin Tale.â It has been several years since young Sawyer Nelson and the dedicated team at the Clearwater Marine Hospital, headed by Dr. Clay Haskett, rescued Winter. Yet their fight is not over. Winterâs surrogate mother, the very elderly dolphin Panama, has passed away, leaving Winter without the only poolmate she has ever known. However, the loss of Panama may have even greater repercussions for Winter, who, according to USDA regulations, cannot be housed alone, as dolphinsâ social behavior requires them to be paired with other dolphins. Time is running out to find a companion for her before the team at Clearwater loses their beloved Winter to another aquarium. DFL/1/37/2014-MUM
