This has happened a few times, such as dolphins lifting a drowning man to the surface or dolphins chasing off a shark. What a shame it is that we often don't treat them with the same consideration.
Edit: They're mammals, not fish Christine. However, I still like your answer so I gave you a thumbs up.
They are the most friendly of marine fish...when you swim in an ocean that has both dolphins and sharks...and the sharks attack you...the dolphins will fight the sharks and help you to the shore...aren't they sweethearts
There are some occurrences of dolphins defending people from sharks or aiding them when they are in the ocean, but as a whole, those are very rare events.
I don't understand why this is in the Philosophy section...
I got some money from a loan shark that I couldn't afford to pay back. This dolphin gave me the money. Saved my life for sure. That loan shark was a bad man.
Seriously though, Ash Grunwald has a song about a dolphin saving him from a shark while he was surfing with a friend. It's called "Dolphin Song" aptly enough.
Dolphin is one of the sentient beings having good affinity with the humans.
For a better understanding of a dolphin; any of the various marine mammals that are typically smaller than whales and larger than porpoises and have a beak-like snout.
Dolphins do save human lives. In the presence of sharks, they works in superior numbers to counter-attack the sharks. They save human, by using their beaks to lift human. Sometimes, it was known that human clings at the dolphin's body, to ease the dolphin for the fast forward gliding towards the shore.
Ironically, dolphins were and are still hunted in large numbers for their meat especially in Asia. Dolphins are Mother Nature's gifts to mankind.
Dolphins have feelings like ours, but we dont love them back instead we poach them and push them near the cliff of extinction, its our way of saying thank you for saving us from sharks
Sad human nature immature humans with machine minds and machine minds
dolphins are psychic they can heal your soul and body , also they are the only animal besides "us" humans that have recreational sex, thus their extremely intelligent and we underestimate them
