Remembering Boomer the Dolphin: A Heartfelt Tribute

Miami, Florida – With heavy hearts, we share the news of the passing of Boomer, a cherished bottlenose dolphin at the Miami Seaquarium. This tragic event, which occurred on the morning of November 2, 2025, has profoundly affected both the staff and the community who adored this remarkable marine mammal. Boomer's life journey began at Marineland, later moving to Dolphin Connection, eventually joining the Miami Seaquarium family. This transition aimed to provide him with a more suitable social environment and better care under the veterinary staff’s attentive eyes.

Boomer was not just another dolphin; he was a symbol of resilience. Throughout his life, he faced numerous health challenges, including chronic appetite issues, recurring inflammation, and intermittent infections. The dedicated team at Miami Seaquarium ensured that Boomer received continuous diagnostic evaluations, antimicrobial treatments, and nutritional support. They worked tirelessly to monitor his condition, adapting his care as needed to ensure his well-being.

In recent weeks, unfortunately, Boomer began to lose weight, prompting the team to implement daily treatments and provide supplemental nutrition. For a brief moment, it seemed their efforts were paying off as Boomer started to regain his weight and vitality. However, despite the team's unwavering dedication and care, Boomer was found deceased on that fateful morning. In accordance with established protocols, a necropsy will be conducted to gain insight into the circumstances of his passing.

Boomer's charm and playful nature captured the hearts of everyone who had the pleasure of working with him. The staff at Miami Seaquarium are devastated by his loss and reflect on the significant bond they shared with this unforgettable dolphin. Their commitment to offering the highest standard of care to all marine animals remains steadfast, fueled by their experiences with Boomer.

The Dolphin Company and Miami Seaquarium extend their heartfelt gratitude to the veterinary professionals, trainers, and animal care staff whose dedication and compassion made a difference in Boomer's life. They also wish to thank the community for their understanding and support during this difficult time.

As an operator of numerous aquatic parks worldwide, the Dolphin Company emphasizes an educational focus on marine mammals and champions environmental stewardship through initiatives aimed at conservation. This mission extends beyond just the dolphins but includes a commitment to the well-being and care of all aquatic life they engage with.

In memory of Boomer, the Miami Seaquarium family invites the community to honor his spirit by supporting marine conservation efforts and learning more about the invaluable role these magnificent creatures play in our ecosystem. Boomer may no longer swim alongside us, but his legacy will inspire many to cherish and protect marine life for generations to come.
