EXTREMELY rare dusky dolphin behaviour!

Incredible interaction with a pod of mating Dusky Dolphins near Robben Island in Cape Town South Africa.
They are apparently pretty promiscuous with males and females mating multiple times with multiple partners and not just for reproductive purposes.
Mating groups are generally made up of 10 males and a single female and she usually makes them chase her until only the fastest males are left, so this pod was more likely to be just interacting socially.

dolphins are ruthless rapers.

[@jheeshin621]

While they may seem that way, I don't think it is fair to judge them by human standards. Their system of doing things may put us off, but why should that matter? They do things their own way; we should stop thinking of them as 'evil' and exaggerating the whole story.

[@jheeshin621]

@@demarcon2073 Correct. Every species has their way of doing things. Just like many people are monogamous, cetaceans are promiscuous. But that doesn't mean they're unfaithful or mean to be so. It's just their way of doing things.

Not rare it's called mating

[@dollyphins]

these dolphins are not mating for reproduction purposes. the female is mating with multiple males purely for social interaction, which is rare

DUDE WHATS THE MALES PROBLEM AND WHAT IS HE THINKING

[@larryellisreed280]

Is it uncommon for dolphins generally to mate female-on-top, as if mating practically every day out of bonding and friendship more so than survival and perpetuation of the species wasn't good enow for dolphins generally? And Another Thing: I can just picture whole communities of Uncharted Polynesians sensing some inspiration in seeing dolphins mate while out diving in their nakedness ... a reminder, in a way, of just how natural, just how beautiful, sexuality is and needs to be (as if sexuality were something of a magical gift of Creation to be respected).
