Dolphin trainers have a very rewarding job. They get to interact with some of the coolest animals on the planet. Dolphin trainers do many interesting things each day. Depending on the type of dolphin trainer you want to be (We’ll get to those types in a minute), you will have specific activities you will do each day. But, no matter what type of trainer you become, there are certain general activities all trainers do. For starters, dolphin trainers identify individual dolphin personalities to determine what kind of training techniques will work best. Some dolphins may respond to one reward (a fish) while others may respond to something totally different (a toy). Yes, dolphins LOVE toys to play with. So to train well a trainer must know what tools will work the best.All dolphin trainers will be responsible for the overall care and well-being of the dolphins, oversee their diet, and ensure these beautiful animals are living in the safest, most hygienic, species-appropriate environment. Trainers must also constantly monitor and observe the animals, and constantly come up with new and interesting ways to interact with them.
