Dolphins outwit Human

This was a good read how smart dolphins really are. A shame their enviroment and body are a limit to their brains. If only they had opposable thumbs they could probably over rule us

Pfft, dolphins are just gay sharks.

Dolphins are sentient like us aren't they?

Meaning they are self-aware, they know who and what they are. Amazing. :cool:

probably caved due to bandwidth as it was on digg.

Basically the trainer taught the dolphin to catch any paper litter and hold it until they could give it back to a trainer. As a thankyou the trainer would give the dolphin a fish. The dolphin buried a piece of paper under a rock and ripped bits from it to get more fish per 1 piece of litter

Pretty much all animals are sentient beings, it's just people don't seem to like the idea that humans are just animals. Be it slightly more intelligent and able with the opposable thumb than the average animal..

Bonobo chimps do as well, and lots of male-male and female-female intercourse as well. They also use sex as a social tool to manipulate others

Weren't pigs classed as more intelligent than the average animal as well?
