Description

Bottle-nosed dolphins, Rajah, Mila and Echo were housed in an aquatic park near Yanchep called Atlantis, north of Perth. There were many unsuccessful attempts made to rehabilitate them to their normal life at sea.

They were then re-located to The Aquarium of Western Australia (AQWA) at Hillarys and were revered by many thousands of Australian and overseas visitors.

Unfortunately in December 1999, Rajah, Mila and Echo died mysteriously at Hillarys Boat Harbour, a case never solved by police.

This is a Memorial in their Memory.
