One of Tangalooma Island Resort’s favourite wild dolphins, Silhouette, gave crowds a wonderful surprise during the wild dolphin feeding session last night, as she debuted her day-old newborn calf.
The 14-year-old female is already mum to Betts, a four-year-old male who appeared to be over the moon with his new sibling and stayed very close throughout the feed.
At this stage, it is too early for staff to determine if the calf is male or female but they are very encouraged of its wellbeing.
The calf is approximately 80cm, weighing between 15-20kg. It is already quite confident and a strong swimmer. These qualities are very important to observe and are a good sign of the calf’s survival in the wild.
Eco Centre and Dolphin Team Manager at Tangalooma Island Resort, Sue Hassard, said “We can expect to see this boisterous and cheeky little calf quite regularly as it matures.”
“It is typical for the calf to nurse from mum for around 12-24 months and will begin to take fish in the wild when it is around six months,” she said.
“If the calf is female, it will remain with Silhouette throughout its life, whereas if it is a male calf, it will wean itself and wander at around three years of age.”
At this stage the calf is yet to be named, and it is expected that the public will have the special opportunity to name the latest addition to Tangalooma’s family of wild dolphins through an upcoming naming competition.
• Mum, Silhouette, is the granddaughter of Beauty, one of the first dolphins of the program
• The Tangalooma Dolphin Feeding Program began in 1992 and runs every evening at sunset
• The new calf becomes the 12th member of the pod of dolphins that regularly visits the resort each evening
Follow Tangalooma Island Resort on Facebook and Instagram to watch the journey of this newest addition to the Tangalooma Dolphin family.

Tongariro Suites are proud to announce the opening of the Night Sky Cottage, complete with a private boardwalk through the protected Manuka and Beech Tree forest taking guests away from light pollution.
This new luxury eco retreat is designed to celebrate New Zealand’s wilderness and the southern night sky.
Set in one hectare of private land with New Zealand native Manuka and Beech trees on the edge of the Tongariro National Park, the new luxury eco-retreat is accessed via a 50-meter boardwalk only with skylights in the lodge’s ceiling allowing guests to star gaze throughout the evening.
The new Night Sky Cottage gives guests a perfect combination of luxury, isolation, wilderness, and with a wide range of exciting activities on the doorstep will provide the perfect place for a family adventure. As the evening draws in our guests can sit back to admire some of the best views of New Zealand’s night sky.
At 90 square meters and with 2 bedrooms each including luxury King size beds, the lodge offers spacious but cosy living with each room making the most of views out to the native New Zealand wilderness beyond. You can listen to the native birds and might even have the pleasure of seeing some deer wondering by.
With all of the home comforts in luxuries you would expect from a luxury Lodge, the Night Sky Cottage also comes with a fully equipped kitchen, lounge area, outdoor veranda with a barbeque, and a private picnic area in a native bush clearing. At the end of a second boardwalk guests will find another clearing with a private deck offering sublime views of Mount Ruapehu.
In the indulgent bathroom there are two side-by-side pedestal vanities as well as a large walk-in shower and two side-by-side freestanding baths with bush views, along with bath salts, oils and candles await guests to relax and unwind.
Committed to creating a sustainable experience for guests’ the new lodge has adopted a zero waste policy; it’s unlikely you will find a single use plastic item in the cottage as any plastic used is fully recyclable or reusable. The cottage even collects and processes its own water.
As the new Night Sky Cottage is located on the edge of Tongariro National Park guests will have the opportunity to undertake a wide range of activities weather hiking, cycling, quad biking, river rafting, skiing or taking a spectacular scenic helicopter flight over the National Park.
