Jotaro: Gosh i wish Dolphins Were real

I live along the west coast of Florida. I frequently see dolphins, I think they are bottle nose but I'm not certain of the species. I see them more frequently in the winter. They like to come into the harbor where the water is more shallow and warm. There is a small pod that I frequently see visit the same spot. Along the sea wall there is a spot where the wall forms an ell. The water is perhaps about 6-10 feet deep and is near where pleasure craft are moored. It seems they have figured out how to trap fish in that ell in the sea wall. A couple of winters ago I watched a mother teach it's two calves (at least I assumed they were both hers or perhaps she was simply the designated teacher of the young i that pod) how to trap the fish along the sea wall. It was fun to watch. This past winter I saw the now much bigger two young dolphins on several occasions visit this spot and they continue to trap fish in that spot. They each and sometimes other dolphins with them but there is almost always those same two (they have distinctive markings on their dorsal fins that make it easy to recognize them) who do this and they swim out to where the docks are then turn around and corral fish against the sea wall then there is a sort of feeding frenzy. They repeat this perhaps half a dozen to a dozen times taking turns in various positions along the sea wall and between the docks getting the fish from different angles. There is always at least one that does most of the driving of the fish into position and the other who snatches them as they run into the wall then turn around and find they are trapped. Often the fish will jump out of the water and there is a dolphin waiting for it with mouth open. But back to the first winter I saw these two young dolphins. I was sitting on the edge of the sea wall watching them. My feet were perhaps about two feet from the surface of the water. One of the dolphins was playing with a two liter bottle that someone probably dumped over board from their boat. The two were tossing the bottle back and forth in a game of catch. After a while they seemed to get kind of brave. The mother was perhaps fifty feet from the sea wall swimming back and forth. the two little ones were getting closer and closer to the sea wall until one was less than five feet from me. All of a sudden I got recruited into the game of catch. One of the dolphins tossed the bottle up out of the water towards me and he had pretty good aim because I all had to do was reach out to catch the bottle. I looked at them then tossed the bottle to the other young dolphin who caught the bottle then tossed it to his sibling who then tossed it back to me. We did this about three or four times and then I realized it was probably not a good idea to let them have trash to play with so I kept the bottle the next time it was tossed to me. I am fairly certain this little game of theirs was a learned behavior. Perhaps someone tossed the bottle to them to see what they would do with it. Anyways they both got kind of vocal when they realized I wasn't returning their toy. That is when the mother swam over and guided them back out of the marina and back out into the main area of the harbor. I have seen them many times after that but I think they are angry with me because they have never come that close to me again though obviously they see me and recognize me. they always stick their head out and look at me for a moment then swim back to what they were doing ignoring me the rest o the time.. It's almost as though they are saying "Let's see who that is." then the see me and say "Oh it's HIM!" and then swim away. On another occasion at a different location I was fishing standing in about three feet of water when a very young dolphin, probably very curious swam right up to me. I could see the pod of about half a dozen dolphins perhaps about fifty feet away where the water was about four feet deep. They were probably doing the same thing I was doing. So this little dolphin was so tiny I could have easily picked it up and held it in my arms and I'm not sure it wouldn't have let me if I tried. It got within maybe three or four feet of me and watched intently as I baited my hook and then cast out the line. It went over to where the bait was and kind of circled for a while then swam back to me and watched some more and then I caught a fish and reeled it in. It was too small for me to keep legally so I tossed it back in the water. Of course I showed it to the baby dolphin and then tossed in to where he could easily get it which he did. It's not legal to actually feed a dolphin but it's also not legal to keep an undersized fish. I had to toss it back. So I tossed it more or less away from the dolphin but being the smart creatures they are this one swam right over and easily caught the fish which was most likely disoriented and stunned from having just been caught on a hook. I caught two more undersized fish and tossed both of them back and this youngster snatched both of them as well. But then I caught my dinner, put it into my bucket, bid the little dolphin goodbye and turned around and left. I looked back once to see him return to the pod. I have to guess that he must have interacted with other humans already as not one member of the pod seemed that upset that he swam over to a human. Not one made a move to retrieve him though they did seem to be rather occupied most likely fishing themselves and maybe they simply didn't notice the youngster wandering off. I have noticed dolphins hanging around the fishing pier hoping for a hand out. They seem to be very aware of the baited hooks being cast out as I have never seen one get hooked. They stay just out of reach of where the lines are cast. Sometimes they approach up close to the pier which is about three feet out of the water but only approach the part of the pier where the fishermen don't cast from. I think they have the whole thing figured out and know exactly what the fishermen are doing and know exactly where to lay in wait for fish who don't understand that those little fish they are chasing are attached to fishing lines. I have seen many dolphins chase fish and catch them around the fishing pier but never do any get close to where the fishermen cast out their lines. I have seen many of them "spy hop" and watch the fishermen and other people at the pier. One eyeballed me for five strait minutes while I eyeballed him back. Ever have a staring contest with a dolphin? They will win every time. It is my observation that dolphins are opportunistic feeders. Like human, each group has figured out how to obtain food in their area and each group has come up with their own strategies and techniques and they teach those to their young. I have personally witnessed half a dozen different feeding behaviors in just a three mile radius along the shore. There must be hundreds or perhaps even thousands of different feeding behaviors among all the different species of dolphins around the world.

@Daniel You have got to be kidding me. This is more about "sentimentality", it's about a basic principle and a truth. It's already known to science that dolphins are self-aware, and there are countless examples in the wild and in captivity that proves their sophistication and intelligence. by saying that we shouldn't sacrifice entertainment by releasing what is a self-aware and intelligent creature is no different from suggesting that we should have captive slaves for entertainment. Regardless of how nice the cage is, it is still a cage. It's a disgusting mentality and shows a complete lack of consideration towards the perspective of the dolphin, especially with the knowledge that Dolphins are self aware and extremely close to the intelligence of humans. What would it take to get you to realize how wrong it is to have a self aware creature demonstrated to be about as intelligent as humans to keep them in a cage for the entertainment of another intelligent species? Is it only okay because they have different bodies from us and aren't land based creatures? Well that's utter bull, because that would be the most lame ass cop out excuse for the gilded imprisonment of intelligent species for the entertainment of other intelligent species.

I agree though sometimes the only two choices are keep them in captivity or release them and watch them die. Some dolphins are either sick or injured and cannot be rehabilitated sufficiently to make it safe for them to return to the wild. In such cases to me the only ethical thing to do is care for them and make them as comfortable as possible. I do only wish they had bigger enclosures. Every enclosure that I have ever seen is less than 1% of the size it should be. Yes, very sick dolphins must be kept in smaller enclosures for rehabilitation purposes but at some point they need a bigger enclosure. Sea World is an example of a place that exists more for profit and entertainment than for the benefit of the cetaceans they keep. It is not primarily a rehab facility though some rehab and research is done there. I live near a real rehab facility that keeps a small number of permanently disabled dolphins and then it has a rehab program where it released rehabilitated dolphins that hey cared for. I have observed many dolphins in the wild and have even interacted with them on a limited basis. I have observed dolphins and other cetaceans at sea world and other exhibits and aquariums. It is obvious to any one who has that dolphins are much happier out in the wild. Sea World and the like are prisons. The cetaceans there are inmates. How do I know? Because I used to volunteer teaching reading to inmates and have had the opportunity to observe their behavior as well. The cetaceans kept in captivity exhibit typical inmate behavior.

A friend and I were on a small island in the intercoastal waterway in Clearwater, Florida when I saw a mama and baby dolphin swim by. And they came back and forth a few times. Then I spotted about 10 grown dolphins heading straight toward them, sending a bait ball right at them. Then baby was able to make her own catch. That was amazing to watch the whole family teach the baby how to catch fish!! That magical moment was such a beautiful gift.

Most of those intelligence tests were simple simon tests that basically insult the dolphins intelligence. We will never know how smart they are until we can have two way communication with them. The most intelligent thing I have seen from a dolphin is a wild dolphin that had a fishnet stuck on him go to a diver for help. That is active thinking that also requires the intuition to know the diver is equally intelligent. It takes intelligence to recognize intelligence.

Imagine this, we have two eyes that observe the same type of light, and your brain decodes that information, and turns it into a picture. Dolphins also have 2 eyes that do this exact thing, however, dolphins also have sonar. So they convert light to visual information, and they convert sound to visual information. This means that their visual cortex is by far more powerful than ours, because they turn both light and sound, from 3 receptive points, into 1 image in their mind. it's really amazing!

I don’t really follow. Can’t you just judge how far away something is based on the sound? Once the dolphins are it of water, sonar doesn’t help much at all. You don’t see many animals on land with sonar because it has no real purpose. Sonar helps when you can get attacked from all directions, but in land, you essentially just have the X axis to watch out for. Dolphins won’t reach the level of humans until they become smarter still, and they still need to make written language, which is impossible.

No gripes with the comment, just putting this out there. For the sake of discussion if nothing else. Because I don't know if "visual information" is the right word to use for sonar, exactly. "Visual cortex" is also a name for a brain part to makes humans perceive the world, named because we heavily rely on light to perceive. Blind people who have adapted their hearing using something similar to echolocation utilizes the visual cortex, but that's kinda because they don't have anything else. They essentially create pictures in their head matching the sound's vibrations, using the one perceiving brain part they do have, feeding it stimuli in new ways. But for, say, bats, they process it in a different way. The brain part perceiving the world around them is not built like the visual cortex, but does have different layers that processes different kinds of stimuli. I imagine it's similar in dolphins. Sound can create an accurate "picture" for them similar to how light does, but it's not really a *picture* as that's entirely sight-based. Point being: It's hard to fathom "visualization" without a picture in mind. Heck, there doesn't even exist a good word for "visualization" that doesn't have "vision" in it. But isn't that just because that's how our brain is built to understand it? Either way, it must be remarkable to perceive the world that way indeed.

Diane meant to say that their brains are second in size to humans when body size is taken into account. Their brains are are larger than human brains. I'm with Lilly on the subject of brain/body ratio. He theorized that large brains need large bodies to protect the brain from brain damage. Also, the dolphin brain is 40 percent larger than humans in the areas that separate humans from apes.

I bet even dolphins are smarter than most of the kids that play fortnite xD

Remember the Simpsons episode where dolphins returned to the land and took over and enslaved the human race.........

Thanks you very much for sharing this info. 😍

Thank You! That was an awesome talk!

Gorgeous photos and amazing animals

These are amazing photographs. Dolphins are magnificent creatures. Philosopher Thomas White did ask if dolphins are "persons" and according to the criteria (among them, being alive, aware, intelligent, communicative, emotive) then it is a yes, they are. There's a lot more to know about them. These visuals help, very informative and beautiful. And so thank you from this landlubber lol.

Of course they're non-human persons. The ancient Greeks knew that! "Diviner than the dolphin, nothing is created," said the poet Oppian. We're just too stupid to recognize it. Dr. John C. Lilly, btw, was the first to propose a "Cetacean Bill of Rights," way back in the 1970s.

That Feast picture was like the last supper for animals lol

Amazing video. Thanks. Dolphins are the best for sure

This video is simply mind-blowing.

This is amazing.

Probably smarter than some people

I have logged more than 2 hours per day over a 2 year period swimming with Wild Spinner Dolphins. Spintaneous encounters where the Dolphins actually approached me with leaves on their fins in a very deliberate and socially inviting manner, inviting play and teaching me. I have many stories to share about what I saw in the water with them. Beyond anything that we may currently think possible for a human being to share with a wild animal. I believe I was blessed with those profound exoeriences because I never expected the dolphins to play my human games. I enter the Ocean on their terms, by their invitation. I lay very still sometimes in the water anf just feel love and srnd love. Often when I open my eyes the dolphins come like a platoon through the water and begin deliberate play. I have experienced 120 hours of spontaneous interactions at sea in South-Africa when I was a Marine Asset Manager, every encounter was unique and nithing I could have planned or imagined.

When I go in the pool in public beach, favourite activity is floating above the water. If I we're to do something like this with dolphins, would they carry me?

Videos are always amazing and Beautiful.

Those photographs are incredible

Angel of the sea, love them too.

I'd like to find a dolphin with an interest in philosophy or the history of their habitat. If we're going to talk about intelligence, we've gotta find individual dolphins with academic interests. I for one think they're fully capable of conceptualizing those sorts of things

I suspect they compose amazing poetry!

Amazing creation.

Nice and interesting. Our aquatic Einsteins living there fascinating lives.

For that 2nd test, the best way to do it would be to only show it to one Dolphin first. Then that Dolphin would have to communicate the information to the other before they could co-operate.

Great, just wonderful!!💓💛💚💙💜😷

It wonder if this will become easier when they, with their smart minds, realize that our strange behavior and tools when we're around them, is because we want to understand them.

Wow! I had no idea how intelligent dolphins could be. They are so cool.

Would have been cool to capture footage of wild dolphins working with fishermen in Brazil...

Just like Conor said all mammals have the same genetic links from mammals that developed on Pangea before it split to form the continents we know today. If this were not the case, I think Australia would probably have other types of mammals than marsupials.

Somewhere, a dolphin is thinking "what did that lady just say to me?" You have to be careful when learning new languages. Once I wanted to tell a Hispanic landscape crew to please NOT share their lunch with my dogs. My syntax must have been flawed, given the horrified looks I got. Turned out, I had asked them not to EAT my dogs. My bad!

Same thing with me. I screwed up Italian while visiting a relative of mine, (his name was Giorno Giovanna) and I asked for squid ink spaghetti, which my grandfather reccomended, and I somehow got raw squid instead.

They are not fish. They are marine mammals, just like us, except in water.

A pod of dolphins once approached the Navy ship I was serving on we were at full speed and they only came up to the side ppl were on and they hung out for about a minute then simultaneously took off much faster than we could go on our big bad ship. I swear they were laughing at us showing is who was truly free

***** Look at a photograph as a "one-frame" video. A really good one-frame video can be just as good as the longer running kind, sometimes more pleasing, graphically. Be assured, the one-frame videos in this video are among the best you will ever see.

I have to disagree. He's a professional photographer at NG. Its best that he focuses on what he's good at. In the right context a picture can be more interesting than a video, especially if the person who took the photo is explaining the backstory. If he were to shoot a video it may have taken attention away from his career as a photographer. Photography and Video are very different in the way that they tell stories. Moving pictures develop over time but a photograph is cemented in frame.

Videos can be distracting to a presentation. When we only hear audio together with still images we tend to focus more on listening to the presenter and use our imagination more.
