body of a dolphin believed to be the one nicknamed "Moko" on a beach
near Gisborne, New Zealand, Thursday, July 9, 2010. The playful
solitary dolphin, described as a teenage by officials, became a
familiar sight around the beaches of the east coast city of Gisborne,
where he swam among beach-goers and stole balls and surfboards. (AP
