I love dolphins. they're such docile and graceful animals.
they've been declared the world's second most intelligent creatures after humans.

Now just imagine how such inteligent creatures must feel about being kept in a water tank for their entire life, for no aparent reason. How would you, a inteligent being, feel?

#6 Probably no different than someone spending their entire life in prison. While it isnt recommended there are people that do get used to a life in prison and cant live on the outside.

If Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy has taught us anything, it's that Dolphins are smarter than us :)

#11 people choose to go to prison by dumb choices. dolphins dont get a choice. terrible comparison.

#13 but if Dolphins are so smart why am I not trapped in a dolphin made cage?
and also some Dolphins are known for rape and should be in Dolphin prison

#6 Although i agree with the bad morality of the situation, i disagree that the dolphins actually care. I don't see you very sad because you almost surely won't visit the outer space, you are trapped in a ball. You were born that way and you don't care, but seen from let's say sentient forms that have been all around the universe.. it is sad from their perspective and not yours. Same with animals raised in captivity

Why do we keep comparing other animals to humans? As if humans are a superior species? Other animals are better than us in so many ways, we should learn from their style of life instead of comparing it to ours. Great video btw.

"we" as a species are intelligent. We have a massive capacity to learn things. Look at Einstein for example, or one of those greek philosophers. I mean, I doubt a dolphin could be the next Ghandi, or Jesus.

We also are emotionally weak and decadant slobs atm. So I can only presume when people say "human's are intelligent" that they left them out. :D
