Dolphin Gets Prosthetic Tail

Winter was just two months old when she got her tail caught in a crab trap—and rendered a useless stump—off the coast of Florida. After a long recuperation and a year and a half of hard labor by one of the veterinary world's top prosthetics wizards, Winter became the first dolphin to receive a functional but fake tail, qualifying her, according to the Daily Mail, as the "world's first bionic sea creature."

Ricky Williams Off Dope AND Biggest HD LED Video Screen

Measuring about 15.2 metres by 41.8 metres, it'll make the screen that holds the "largest" record at Turner Field (in Atlanta) look downright, well, smaller.

Armed with toxic dart guns, these dolphins are taught to obliterate enemies that might be attacking military vessels. During the wrath of hurricane Katrina, their containment compound was destroyed, releasing the brainwashed fish out to sea. Now all we can do is wait until some innocent tourist is found face down in the water after attending their first scuba diving class. We just wonder how the dolphin will plead to the imminent homicide charges. More »
