Default Re: Dolphins protect Chinese ship from pirates!!!

Dolphins are VERY intelligent and social creatures (some hypothesize they are among the smartest creatures on earth (below humans, but on the level of chimps, etc)). There have actually been SEVERAL cases of dolphins protecting humans from shark attacks or otherwise in danger. I can't be sure that they were consciously trying to help in this situation, but it's possible!

Maybe this is the way dolphins are thanking humans for 'dolphin safe' tuna! LOL. Either way, I'm glad to have intelligent creatures on our side!
