What the heck does that mean? They are going to cut it up? Bury it out at sea. Let it have a final resting place.

They'll probably just do the autopsy at the research institute that is attached to SWF. Literally in the employee parking lot. They rescue a ton of animals all over florida.

BTW- this was not at the dolphin show... It was at Discovery Cove in one of the large interaction pods- in the deep section away from guests :-(
