0_0 , I think the thing below is very relevant to this story. These dolphins are proving themselves to be smarter than we ever imagined.

An extract

[ Dr Lori Marino, of Emory University in Atlanta, one of the architects of the declaration, said it had been prompted by a shift in our understanding of the dolphin brain.

"We went from seeing the dolphin or whale brain as being giant amorphous blob that doesn’t carry a lot of intelligence and complexity to being an enormous brain with a complexity that rivals our own," ]

Good. I love dolphins.

Though in respect to Dr Lori, Dolphins have been perceived as very intelligent animals for a long time now.

Cool. Too bad they don't have opposable thumbs.. or hands. Yet!

They're okay.. for now..

So it begins..we must stop them before they rise up and overthrow us like The Simpsons predicted. 
 
  

@laflux: I am waiting for them to make this machine that means we can translate what language the dolphins speak, they say they have a language equiv to a 10 year old.

That is like totally awesome. Dolphins are awesome. How awesome can they get?

@Nefarious:

I'll be really impressed if a Great White did something like that :D

Bravo...bravo...

@Living_Monstrosity: They are not half as intelligent.

Dolphins are cute.

I know. But it would be cool if scientists managed to develop a drug that increased brain intelligence and injected it into sharks, like what they did in the movie Deep Blue Sea. Maybe sharks would be nicer if they were smarter.

@Living_Monstrosity: Maybe lol, maybe. But dolphins man, imagine talking to them? What they could tell us about animals view to humanity..

They'd probably tell us to kill all the Orcas for them.

@Living_Monstrosity: Actually, they have helped fisherman catch fish, they lure them into the nets and take a share, incredible.

@Nefarious:

Fun fact.

Dolphins rape people.

One of the evolved dolphins, whose opposable thumbs have struck fear in the hearts of humankind.

A primitive axe crafted out of driftwood and shell that is believed to be the handiwork of dolphins.

Don't ever let the dolphins get you down. Just remember:

• You are a human.
• You have opposable thumbs.
• You can stand upright.
• You rule.
