Takoma the dolphin is Awol…oftewel de mijnensniffende flipper van hieronder op de foto is er op zijn eerste opdracht vandoor… (Absent WithOut Leave )
” Takoma, the Atlantic bottle-nosed dolphin, had been in Iraq for 48 hours when he went missing on his first operation to snoop out mines.
His handler, Petty Officer Taylor Whitaker, had proudly showed off Takoma’s skills and told how the 22-year-old dolphin was among the most pampered creatures in the American military. “
