Man I'm mixed on this. I'm very happy that these creatures aren't being stolen from the ocean anymore for human entertainment. But for an old lady like this, the odds of her re-adapting to a wild state are basically nil. Imagine being abducted by aliens at a youngish age and later, without ever being able to meaningfully communicate with your captors, and many decades later you're being moved to a distantly remembered place and set free. Hell, a popular sci-fi setting in movies and books involves a person living in similar circumstances and being sent back home decades later. At least in this scenario the idea is to slowly re-introduce her and get her reacquainted with the area. Anyway, without knowing more details than the article provides, I kind of am siding with the alternate idea of letting her live out her days with those dolphins she's lived with forever, plus her known human assistants. Maybe it's not as fulfilling as Free Willy (who died soon after release), but at least she would be in familiar company and have more space to move around in.
