There were five dolphins who played Flipper on the show, all females who were taken from the wild and spent the rest of their lives in captivity. One of them, Kathy, eventually became so depressed and lethargic that she committed suicide--she held her breath until she stopped breathing and died in her trainer's arms.

The OPPOSITE of the Lassies' who were ALL played by males. So on 'Flipper' it's females playing a male, while on 'Lassie' it's males playing a female. Plus, Lassie's bark is NOT that of a collie...BUT ACTUALLY that of a German Shepherd.

He was typecast after the show and wasn't able to find much work. He still makes appearances at conventions.
