  About Katerina (SWF-OO-8802)
After the famous Kalina*, Katina gave birth to her second daughter at 16:19 EST , who got a similar name, Katerina. She lived just a few years at her birthplace with her family, until she was moved around the SW parks; at first being transferred to Ohio at the age of 2 years, where she joined Kayla, a female at the same age; later she arrived at Sea World San Antonio, which was her home until her death. She became a surrogate sister to her young nephew Keet and fit in very well in the pod, consisting of Kotar*, Haida II* and Kyuquot.

Katerina was a reliable performer and was also used for waterworks. No accident was recorded with her. Sadly not much is known about Katerina. She was fine on the Sunday before her death and on the Wednesday, May 5th, she passed away.
