Did Ricou train Flipper?
Published in Daily Trivia
Ricou Browning, a former lifeguard who earned limited fame after playing the monster in 1954's horror film Creature From the Black Lagoon, personally trained TV's first Flipper, a female dolphin named Mitzi. Browning is the one responsible for developing the show's premise, and got his inspiration from his own kids' favorite TV show at the time, Lassie.
