An interesting and sad thing happened while we were at the ocean, a dolphin beached itself, rescue workers tried valiantly to save her, but attempts failed after 12 hrs. It appears she had a broken tooth, an ovarian cyst, and a bladder infection. Our illnesses affect ocean mammals as well, and drove her to beach herself. I never considered this before, that they could get female problems the same as us. I was always aware of the dangers of plastic waste in the ocean, teaching my grandchildren to respect the environment. Health is such a vital issue------to everything, plant, animal, or human.
