“I was kidnapped by a horny dolphin” a memoir by Michael Maes 😂

[@rachels6808]

Reminds me of this guy who has an interview on KZbin about his romance with Dolly the dolphin.😬

[@KKKKKP0PPPP]

@@rachels6808 the fact that dolly seduced the guy LOLL😿

[@Sunshinebbb]

@NoellexToca but is it possible for dolphins to have physical contact with humans I’m just curious tho loll

[@KKKKKP0PPPP]

@@Sunshinebbb dolly kinda yk came closer to him but he technically raped her because she had physical stuff but she probably didn’t mean tga

[@thatsacutecat]

Man dolphins are scary. I am more terrified of them than sharks now and sharks are scary. You really get tricked tho by their cute exterior

[@Triggeredsociety]

Dolphins 🐬 also get high off this type of fish in the ocean they poke it to get the fish to release it's toxin that makes the dolphins high, I found that so interesting

[@peppa4412]

Yes pufferfish

[@shegosilver4722]

Yes, this is one case in which, I would happily be in the friend zone

[@elizabethcazares6747]

Michael: Hey, that 'dolphin' came on to me 😂😂

[@Robohead-z6z]

Dolphins can get sexual, but we must remember that dolphins might have different standards than us. Social sexual play is apart of dolphin culture. For dolphins, sex is more than just make babies or have fun. It can also means hello, let’s play and so on. Look up social sexual play in dolphins.

[@mbererm]

When this shows up as a recommended video on KZbin you have to wonder…what am I doing with my life?

[@PaulBKal]

According to Dr Richard Connor’s book ‘Dolphin Politics In Shark Bay’, the sponge in the dolphin’s mouth is for feeding. They use it to flush fish out of the sea grass and quickly snap up the fish.

[@BradGryphonn]

I feel that with some animal species we need to anthropomorphize them and realize that confining them in an entertainment environment is akin to putting people in a colosseum-type environment as slaves. Especially when you consider that humans have on average, a far smaller individual habitat range than dolphins.

[@foe]

"anthropomorphize" what you mean??

[@JewelLapooleeeeee]

I think that they mean humanize, so that they should have similar rights to freedom.

[@Robohead-z6z]

No animal species should be humanized. This whole nonsense is why some people are calling dolphins perverts cause of dolphin sexual behavior . Yes dolphins do sexual things, but not to be perverted. It’s just sexual social play. To dolphins it’s normal. Sex to them is more than just babies and fun.

[@deliawright8626]

​@@foelook it up on the internet.

[@metalsonic4.1therobothedge24]

Buddy, they're almost as smart as humans, they SHOULD be humanized But dont get me wrong, we should also stop​ generalise that, Dolphins are like peoples, some are perverted, some are sane people, tbh its the proof smarter = more akin to being a degenerate@@Robohead-z6z

[@christineweaver3090]

I saw this one you tube channel that said dolphins don't like humans,they wear the females out and if a female with her baby the males wear her out and leaving the baby defenseless.then says dolphins are not saving humans from sharks rather that they just don't like sharks 😞

[@nyademattos7808]

its true, apparently they are a pretty brutal creature

[@deedeesigvertsen9157]

I know Flipper loves children!!!

[@VicksWezaleff]

Do you hear that, it's the sound of the world's tiniest violin

[@Playstation-Player5th]

They are the Gangsters of the sea

[@TheJudiBambiPurrsParadox]

They also get high playing pufferfish toss. I've heard that wet suits feel like a dolphin's skin, thus why they sometimes get a bit risque at times with divers. As it swims past the person, it might brush against them and feels that nice feel to them. They can also use that hard, strong rostrum to ram into others...sharks in particular, but people as well.

[@raniasa5700]

Its not our ocean its their ocean.

[@ButterfatFarms]

It's not their ocean it everyone's ocean, survival of the fittest. That's the reality of nature.

[@funfan515]

Don’t you think doggy style would be kinda difficult, when the female has a huge tale/ fluke in the way? Think about practicality, man!

[@thehaiderbrotherhood4140]

You are Awesome 💯 explainer 😊

[@I_Am_SciCurious]

Dolphins had incredibly good PR. They’re not nice at all. Just ask a seal. Orcas pick on the standard dolphin and it would have made me feel bad before knowing dolphins are jerks and nature is metal.

[@wallywhitlock99]

Love your podcast What the Duck. Also the podcast Hooked on Freddie about a Male Dolphin. True story about what you have been talking about in this ytube. 😅😅😅😅

[@deedeesigvertsen9157]

Duck sex is cruel too. The female gets held down in the water its ugly

[@sarahgrey5953]

I love Dr Ann Jones!!

[@Robohead-z6z]

It wouldn’t be surprising if the most of the dolphins who r@p3 and use puffer fish are young dolphins.

[@AmneHex]

Ohhh yeh, some male juvenile dolphins get kicked out of the pod, and since they are not able to attract female dolphins indvidually, they form gangs and attack a single female dolphin, in which they "take turns" with the female dolphin over several months

[@turtlejeepjen314]

I’m here from the stories of Margaret…. 💀 (why am I doing this to MYSELF???!🤡)

[@alainaval]

What’s that?

[@destinypainton3540]

Lmfaooo same

[@lekiacooper5783]

Margaret is the woman that had a sexual relationship with a male dolphin and when he was moved to a new home and separated from her he took his own life.

[@CristinaF210]

its not our ocean its their ocean, id LOVE to really be like that

[@myristicinman4566]

I’m here because of John C Lilly lol. I am now equal parts terrified by and fascinated with these creatures

If this doesn't have the adolescents getting high on puffer fish and passing it back and forth like a joint I'm going to be deeply disappointed. 🐬🐡🐬🐬🐬 🤪. Also did you know sperm whale adult females form a bond with another female (sometimes their wet nurse for their babies) usually for life and rub their nether regions on each other for either pleasure or to form and keep that bond or both because they only meet up with the adult males (who are usually in artic or colder waters the rest of the time) once every two years and they don't just breed with the one male and when the baby is born they might not meet her father for years or sometimes ever because the males like to spread out their kin and also not interbreed. I love Spermwhales 🐋 Being the largest toothed mammals on earth and being so huge but also so gentle and as graceful as a ballerina. Great vid, Blessings from Scotland. 🙏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿✌️

[@kapple654]

any animal that has a high population of lesbianism is going to be unfathomably bright

[@eightbitfeline1415]

there's no proof that dolphins get high off pufferfish. the story was likely made up

[@MmGocrazy-rs1cc]

You saying wear her out is funny😂

[@vickiezaccardo1711]

I'm looking for the short reel you did showing the males gang uhm..mating a female. I can't find it.

Here from Contrapoints

[@FraBra88]

So that men was basically erred by a dolphin 😮

[@SameerPrehistorica]

[@veerosas6944]

Why are they trapping and treating wild dolphins in this manner, all in the name of research! It's so cruel😢

[@Some_random_Stickman]

I mean dolphins quit r@pe people but you are technically right but in this video it show the beach not an aquarium

[@TheHollandHS]

She should be grateful being human living in the 21st century , its rare for a living creature to understand consent

Next thing we know American woman will be protesting dolphins -_-

[@MrYokahu]

Why call it "Dark"? As is negative... it is normal... It is their ocean.

[@sockenfraualfred6324]

It is not shown in this video, but there is something like a dark side. They sometimes r@pe and have fun with other creatures for days up to weeks till the death if the victim. That is an aspect humans define as dark, because it is not only sex for reproduction or fun for all who are with it.

[@RobespierreThePoof]

Meh. It's fine. It's just a rhetorical device to hold our interest. And she is describing things that would be considered sexual assault by human standards. Those who idealize dolphins can learn from that

[@bibib2455]

LgbtD 😂

Homosexual behavior in animals is extremely are'widespread.
