Dolphins are so ... ( 4 months ago by paulgreenfields)
Dolphins are so good. One of my favorite water mammals.
NG is a good channel too.
dstevens, male ... ( 4 months ago by thestarduster)
dstevens, male dolphins will kidnap (steal) female dolphins and perform forced copulations. The males of many dolphin species will kill calves that are not their own, kill other species (e.g. porpoises), kill sick pod members, bite one another and bully etc. Some even cannablise their own kind (e.g. Orcas). They are no different to any other wild animal. People just like to think they are somehow 'divine' and don't do this sort of thing but it is just not true.

maya, this is ... ( 4 months ago by thestarduster)
maya, this is another 1 of the many myths about dolphins.Bonobos also mate for pleasure. Also: what animal doesn't mate for pleasure? Pigs can orgasm for 30 min. For most dolphins, the bulk of mating does actually occur in the mating season & less outside of it. Humans don't have mating seasons so it can be defined as pleasure.
River dolphins live solo lives & don't mate unless a partner seeks them out during season so River dolphins are just like most other animals who only mate during season.

very sad to hear about the dolphin calf mortality rate. I did enjoy the video though. THanks for posting!!
Actually, one ... ( 1 month ago by thestarduster)
Actually, one reason calf mortality is high is because some populations of male Bottlenose dolphins attack one anothers babies so badly that the dead dolphins have massive internal injuries such as internal bleeding, punctured lungs, broken bones and blubber ripped from the bone. Infanticide is something that likely happens in other species but it's a matter of catching it on film.

Like most animals, ... ( 6 days ago by shinyponie)
Like most animals, its hard to protect young from other males...kinda like with lion prides, males often kill babies that are not of their own...simply to ensure their bloodline is restored...its instinct and apart of the animals cycle...
Truly wonderful creatures, so beautiful and intelligent...unlike so many who slaughter these animals...thankyou national geographic for educating me ever since i was a wee lass!!!
