Training dolphins? Does not "training" imply that one is in a trainee status?  And are not both of those meant to be temporary?  And, are not dolphins meant to be permanent?  If so, then why bother bestowing a special badge for a trainee who is aspiring to work beyond that status?  Makes little sense to me.
