Do you like wearing bright colours?
I remember a local zoo used to have a dolphin show where they'd pull a child around in a small inflatable boat, and I desperately wanted to be chosen for it. My mother helped me pick out the brightest clothes I had that morning, and guess what? I was picked.
That zoo no longer has dolphins. It was not a good environment for them. Well before my time, they even had an Orca - it must have been an utterly miserable existence for it.
I'll have to go back & look at pictures but no I don't think so. I was tall for my age though, but since it was always mixed age groups, don't think it was a literal 'standing out'. But yes - kissed by the whale, the dolphin, the birds, walked tightrope, swung on trapeze, tried to juggle, every show at every theme park, every time.
