Beggar

description Beggar Overview

Beggar was a wild bottlenose dolphin known in Sarasota Bay, Florida, for approaching boats and asking for food, behavior that gave him his name. He died in 2012, and reports connected the case with repeated human feeding, which can replace natural foraging and expose dolphins to an unhealthy diet and dangerous contact with boats. The episode is used in public education about keeping food and other rewards away from wild dolphins.
