I am convinced Dolphins are far more superior, caring and loving than Humans which----- isn't hard to beat come to think of it.

Not sure if anyone knows how the baby received that deadly gash on its back (most likely via humans) but the Mother was clearly on a mission to move her deceased baby------probably away from gawking spectators snapping photos!

I don't believe the Mother was grieving as stated for I believe animals have an innate understanding that there is life-after-life and that they'll meet again.

On July 8, a mother dolphin was spotted with her calf in Sanniang Bay of Qinzhou City in Southern China. The mother appeared to be helping her calf stay afloat. And when a tourist vessel got close enough to see the baby, they saw that it was dead.

It had a long cut across its belly, probably from a boat propeller. Tourist boats often go dolphin spotting in nearby waters.

The calf looked like it had been dead for several days.

This seems like a very silly statement to me. I honestly don't think dolphins are more superior than humans.

They may be very nice to humans when we interact. Just like dogs. Maybe they know they need to be weary of us and that is why they interact so well.

The ocean is not a great place for other species to have to live with dolphins. THere are many stories about what dolphins get up to on their own turf. On they treat some of their own, I get the impression they largely behave like vicious gangsters. Many gangs seem to bully other animals in the sea.

The murders were confirmed by a film that surfaced, which depicted a group of bottlenose dolphins attacking a porpoise to the point of breaking its back and shattering its soft tissue.



In an even more shocking discovery, young dolphin corpses with matching injuries were spotted on the same shores as those where the porpoises were found. The reasons why bottlenose dolphins kill their young are unknown. However, some scientists believe it is due to mating instincts. In the wild, a lion will kill the young in order to make the mother available to mate again. Some researchers say the same principles may apply for the bottlenose dolphins. However, proof has shown the killing of young dolphins is not restricted to the male population, which only makes the case more perplexing.




Carrying around one of your dead young for days on end is not the sign of a more superior , caring , or loving animal. It seems very illogical and possible an animal that is suicidal and looking to be attacked.

Thank you for sharing


I don't take to heart too much of what 'science' thinks. In 50 years we'll see how dumb we were. And in 500 years, we'll be embarrassed to have been a part of such an ignorant race. We know diddly squat.

Dolphins are highly intelligent. That much we all agree on. This 'homosexuality' thing seems to be more the rule than exception among the animal kingdom. Maybe Humans are doing it all wrong?

Who knows.

But like I said, a bunch of people studying Dolphins for 6 years does not make, fact. It's only a theory and we've been wrong a lot more than we've been right.

My mamma cat lost a grown kitten about 4 years ago and she definitely grieved and some nights still does. She will wander around our place, with her grown kittens favorite toy in her mouth, crying and crying, sometimes for hours. Sometimes I can soothe her, other times I end up crying with her, I feel so badly for her.

I have also seen animals quite aware of their own mortality. In several cases I have seen pets that have come to me and "asked"for help when very ill. In nearly all cases I was able to get the pet help in time to save its life. In all cases, the illnesses were life threatening-in that I mean that without medical assistance, there was absolutely no chance they would've survived.

I personally think we know very little about the animal life around us. Certainly not enough to be able to understand their complex psyches. Heck, we don't even have a good handle on our own issues yet! Dolphins are definitely intelligent animals, but none should be discounted.

maybe as the AWARNESS GROWS in humans its GROWING IN ALL SPECIES (radiation the natural kind from a cosmic provider). The parent dolphin seems to be sad and was attached to her young. I wonder where its being taken too??? What if humans totally ASCENDED INTO MULTIPLE DIMENSIONS UP OR DOWN & left here it would be wise to upgrade the animal life ONCE AGAIN for future preservation of this sphere, so they can flurish past the human presence. IF THAT WAS THE CASE AND HUMANS WHERE SCHEDULED TO ADVANCE OR BECOME OVERSEEN.

Sometimes the WAAAAY ouuta box thinking in me makes me think or wonder if there are actual bad or negative animals just as there are humans. SOME GOOD SOME BAD. I think this when viewing animal kingdom and seeing the pupps or cubs killed or eaten by larger predators who could find larger prey but seek the weak and new. Humans are scanned so htose who are GOOD in nature are SEEN as those who are not are SEE as well. This is WHY there has to be CREATOR GOD(s) sends presence to oversee ALL* and to decide JUDGMENTS ON ALL* positive and negative ENERGIES.
