Betty - December 14
Betty remains in the same general area as she has since 27 November, but a bit farther to the SE.

Betty - December 10
After some bad info over the weekend when we thought maybe Betty might be on the move, today shows that she remains in the area where she has been for nearly two weeks, west of Key West.
If she continues to remain in the area, it begs the question about whether she perhaps has found her "home" from before the stranding, or if she has simply found really good habitat for Risso's dolphin after her extended tour of the greater Gulf of Mexico. The entire arc from due west of Ft. Myers to due south, including where she is now, has the 1,000 m contour about equi-distant from the stranding site.
