That goes in general to whales and dolphins. I mean if it walks like a fish...
But let's have a closer look to examine the specific Flipper case.

This part is clearly containing fake elements, since Flipper is not in any way "flying" under the sea, and there is no serious evidence to support the assertion that he is "faster than lightning".
This part is clearly the expression of an outright reactionary ideology: the writer is obviously pro-monarchy, and paints King Flipper as a gentle, caring ruler. This is obviously designed to turn innocent children into loyal subjects who never question the authority of the monarch or the ruling class in general.
However, most revealing in all this is that they choose to leave our children completely in the dark about the fact that Flipper is actually not fish.

and we know Flipper lives in a world full of wonder,
flying there under, under the sea!

Everyone loves the king of the sea,
ever so kind and gentle is he,
tricks he will do when children appear,
and how they laugh when he’s near!
