Yes, you read that right. Even dolphins need to go on a diet these days!

Officials at the Kinosaki Marine World in Japan have decided to put all their 19 dolphins on a diet starting last August because the cute ones all failed to reach their jumping targets and stay erect while treading on the water.

Actually, visitors to the marine park were the ones to first notice these changes in the dolphins when they started to note that the dolphins were no longer jumping as high as they used to. From here, the caretakers noticed that yep, the dolphins ARE getting rounder!

Using a tape measure (I wonder if dolphins have the same apprehension as humans when subjected to a tape measure!), it was confirmed that the dolphins were indeed heavier, with some putting on as much as 22 lbs over the summer.

The dolphins’ diet at the marine park used to be around “31 pounds of mackerel mixed with some white fish”. Now, the dolphins are on a weight loss plan of “more white fish and fewer fatty mackerels, while instituting a new exercise regime”.

Hmmm… eat less fat and a new exercise routine. I guess it really doesn’t matter if it’s for humans or animals; the same basic weight loss steps apply.
