And if we are talking about human standards, then IIRC dolphins attack humans far less often than sharks, so I think the latter have earned their poor standing there. 1 Share this post Link to post

Who even started making us choose??? Can't we be team all sea creatures cause the ocean is amazing??? Well if your dolphin patronus is FEMALE, Taylor Anne, I bet it's cool? Most of the dolphins who played "Flipper" were female. I bet they never had dicks out. I quote wikipedia: "Female dolphins were chosen because they are less aggressive than males and their skins (unlike the skins of male dolphins) are usually free from scars and other disfigurations acquired in altercations with other dolphins, making it easier to have them pass for the identical "Flipper". As for if a dolphin can really "rape" another dolphin. It's possible the some of the females have evolved to want a gang bang? Who knows. I don't want to slut shame female dolphins. I have however read of male dolphins raping whales? like through the blow hole? And that's how they breathe so, like, it could be dangerous? (Male dolphins have also tried this with other male dolphins--see Ricky Gervais' comedy.) It's not just humans. And the inter-species stuff is freaky to me. 5 Share this post Link to post

(A friend of mine once showed us a "cute" picture of her at a dolphin encounter and my coworker and I were like, "... there's it's dick right there.") I was actually thinking the other day it's a shame Hollywood always does shark movies and then people are afraid of them because they should be afraid of dolphins. We should write a movie where some evil company puts, like, Viagra juice in the water and the dolphins just rape swimmers. I'd rather a shark bite my leg off. It's usually an accident. And even if it did want to eat my leg, at least the leg is going to good use. Apparently they also use dead fish like fleshlights to jack off with? There's video of it in one of the articles on shitty dolphin behavior I found but I was too afraid to watch it. Similar to Meatloaf I will do lots of things in the name of scientific research but watching dolphin porn ... I just won't do that. I will however watch a dolphin chew a puffer fish and pass it around like a fishy bong so they can get a high.   1 Share this post Link to post

Which are also technically dolphins. If the animal known as the KILLER whale is pretty much a beefy version of something maybe that thing deserves more respect and fear, just saying. Also fuck Sea World. Share this post Link to post

I'm personally more upset about them using their echo location to fucking kill baby dolphins and porpoises (though I'm not going to lie I kind of love the word porpicide) and then fucking PLAYING with the corpses. Like they don't eat them . They just kill them for shits and giggles. Or to fuck their mom's some more if they are baby dolphins. Which is why why it comes to aquatic mammals my favorite is narwhals. Unicorn and a whale all for the price of one! Share this post Link to post

Yeah, when I saw a picture of a male anglerfish, I laughed. I didn't even think they were the same species. 1 Share this post Link to post
