Muscovites chose a name for a Black Sea bottlenose dolphin calf in the Active Citizen project. More than 290,000 people took part in the voting.
According to its results, the baby will be called Lucky, which means “lucky” in English. This option was chosen by 34 percent of participants. In second place was the name Fedya – 24 percent of votes. 14 percent of “active citizens” voted for Kesha. 13 percent of Muscovites would like to name the baby Leon. 12 percent of participants liked the name Lars. Four percent of users trusted their choice to specialists.
The baby dolphin was born in the Moskvarium oceanography and marine biology center in July. As Moskvarium reported, during the two months of voting, the baby managed to grow a lot and become more independent.
“The baby is developing quickly, gaining weight well and growing actively. Since birth, its weight has tripled, and it has grown by about 40 centimeters. It has also started teething. We regularly monitor all of its physiological indicators and can confidently say that the baby’s development is within the biological norms for this age,” shared Irina Suvorova, head of the veterinary service at Moskvarium.
The baby dolphin is also increasingly showing interest in the world around him. Previously, he spent all his time with his mother, but now he often communicates with other inhabitants, especially with the cubs Loki and Izy.
“The baby is very playful and inquisitive. He loves his toys, especially the fitballs and the big ring. Recently he learned to blow bubbles with his blowhole, his favorite pastime now is blowing them up and popping them. He actively tries to interact with the trainers, comes up to scratch himself, offers his tummy and tail,” said Ilya Siplivy, a marine mammal trainer at Moskvarium.
With the help of voting in the Active Citizen project, residents of the capital have already chosen names for animals of the Moscow Zoo and the City Farm at VDNKh. Among them are panda Katyusha, tiger Amur, macaques Manya and Dunya, yak Zvezdochka, alpacas Shokoladka and Chernichka, and others.
The vote is prepared VDNKh and the Active Citizen project. The results can be found on the website or in the project’s mobile application.
Project “Active Citizen” has been operating since 2014. During this time, more than seven million people have joined it, and over 6.7 thousand votes have been held. Every month, 30–40 decisions made by Muscovites are implemented in the city. The project is being developed Department of Information Technology of the City of Moscow and the State Institution “New Management Technologies”.
The use of digital technologies and artificial intelligence to improve the quality of life of city residents corresponds to the objectives of the national program “Digital Economy of the Russian Federation” and the regional project of the capital “Digital Public Administration”.
