Shamu Christmas Miracles by SeaWorldParks on Flickr. Kalina can be recognized by her very small oval-shaped eyepatches that have a point and rectangular edge near her eye. She also has two black freckles on her chin, one near the edge of her mouth and the other closer to her pectoral flippers. Her flukes had a very dark gray shading around the edges and her dorsal fin leaned slightly to the left.
