It’s the horrible time of year when fisherman start hunting dolphins. Sure, we humans do horrible stuff to each other on a daily basis, but that’s a different argument all together. These beautiful creatures need our help (http://www.takepart.com/thecove). They don’t hesitate to help out when humans are in need.
“In 2004, lifeguard Rob Howes and three others were swimming off the coast of New Zealand. When they were about 300 yards out to sea, several bottlenose dolphins sped toward them, behaving very erratically. Slapping the surface with their fins and diving underneath the swimmers, the dolphins herded the group together by circling them tightly. As Howes peered beneath the water to watch them dive, he realized the dolphins were protecting his group from a great white shark heading straight for them. The dolphins fended off the shark for 40 minutes until the swimmers could safely make it to shore” – The New Zealand Herald, 2004.
