"Zoom the White Dolphin" (fr "Oum le dauphin blanc") was a 1971 French animated television series, of 13 episodes, created by Vladimir Tarta, directed by René Borg.

The original French version was broadcast in 1971 on ORTF's second network and rebroadcast in France from 29 June 1981 on FR3. An English version was produced and broadcast internationally on networks such as CBC Television (Canada). The Japanese version of the series was titled "Iruka to Shônen (イルカと少年)", which means "the dolphin and the boy".

Production companies involved in the series were Telcia, Saga Films and Japan's Eiken.

ynopsis

The series presents the adventures of Zoom, a white dolphin and his friends, two children who live with their sailor uncle. The cast includes several animals including a starling who understands the dolphin language, a koala, and a sloth.

During their adventures, Zoom meets a beautiful female dolphin with whom he has a baby.

Product promotion

Zoom was the mascot for Nestlé's Galak chocolate brand until the company ended its licence in 2003. However, the series rights-holders sued Nestlé after extant stocks of Galak product featuring the character continued to circulate.
