Comment on Dolphin Bites Boy’s Arm At SeaWorld by angel

I don’t believe that dolphins bite because I have touched dolphins at sea world and even when I see them in the ocean,they don’t look or act mean to anyone. Who ever talks and says that dolphins are bitters……r wrong. I believe that they are the most lovable creatures that man kind could ever have. I mean really, try swimming with sharks. Like if you would? Of course no one would why because all of you are scared,and with dolphins of course not because they don’t do anything. Maybe the dolphin was trying to get the kids attention but I don’t believe that it was an attack. I mean who knows, maybe the kid was just trying to get attention from the mom. Who will ever know,what happened that night? But I am sure and many people and trainers know that dolphins are lovable and kind.Think about it what was a family doing in sea world so late and so close to them?

I was snorkeling in Cozumel this summer and I was filming a barracuda and he vigorously came toward me and barely missed me. I am thankful to God I am still alive.

I am curious? If arrogant, hairless monkeys developed the capacity to speak and had the capacity for abstract thought, would they try and catch a 15,000 lb. killing machine and make it do stunts?

I enjoy scuba diving very much. I have dove with 14′ lemon sharks, and have never felt threatened. This was obviously a case of mistaken identity.

That is a scary article. I love to scuba dive, but on my own terms. Good thing they recognized the leak before it was too late.

They are attracted by the bag of dead fish trailing nice smells through the water that’s attached to the diver’s gear. It’s very unfortunate. Condolences to his family.

I agree with Casey. Especially because the body wasn’t recovered. Sounds like a Tiger.

But I don’t follow you, Collin.

This shark obviously went for the human and ate him. What do fish have to with the instant case?

Lo and behold, yet again we see the misplaced theory of “mistaken identity” applied (in this instance) to Killer Whales. Not only are the most finely tuned predators (White sharks) prone to (what else) “mistakenly” thinking humans they bump, bite and taste actually a seal, now many marine biologists are “theorizing” that Telly the Killer Whale “mistakenly thought” the trainer was a toy and was “just playing”. What nonsense.

“The victims? Well, they all fell into the pool- and then drowned and then, well, Telly just wanted to play with him thinking the human was a toy.”

Only a fool or an apologist would impute “playful” instincts to a predator that routinely takes live seals out to sea and savagely beats them for no apparent reason, with more conscious disregard than a cat will toy with a small bird.

Killer Whales are arguably the smartest creature in the sea. But they are killers and aggressive towards their prey. Their abusive and violent beatings of seals are case studies in unbridled wrath.

If not removed from active duty, Telly will just kill another person. This death was avoidable. How sad.

we should not hold animals against there will for them to jump around a tank for some fat tourist who wants to see a beautiful animal turned into a way of entertainment it just makes me sick i feel sorry for the womans family but we should not force and animal against its will to act to stupidly i saw we let them go back into the wild apart from the ones that are born in the tanks that dont know how to live in the sea

Most shark attacks in Fiji are, unfortunately, against locals who have recently caught fish attached to their belts. The sharks are going for those fish….
