BIO: We are very very excited to have Hanson Buoy with us. She has a flipper tag! The information we received from the tag was the following: She was part of a FP transmission study here between 1994-1997. She was then released in November of 1997, and at that time she only weighed 35 lbs. Wow has she grown!

UPDATED: 7/6/17 Getting better every day.

UPDATE: 1/20/20 Had my yearly physical today and I am now tipping the scale at 311 pounds.

UPDATE: 4/28/20 Got some extra weights added to my shell to help me get under the water easier.

UPDATE: 5/19/2020 Had a lovely scrubbing today! The rehabilitation staff would all probably agree she is quite a bit of a handful.
