A lot of people are complaining about the dolphins being in a tank and claim that the dolphins should be freed. The problem is that if any of these dolphins were actually born in captivity, they wouldn't stand a chance out in the wild if they were let loose. Most we can do is hope that these are captive born, and that no more wild dolphins are caught. Also, to those claiming the human is free, unlike the dolphin, you're deluded. We're all prisoners to something or someone.

@@davidboult4143no animals should be in cages but with dolphins it is a special case. These animals use sonar in nature. Not possible in a tank. They travel a LOT. Not possible in a tank. They are predators, very intelligent and don’t deserve to be captured because of some people like to see them this way. This is so wrong !

[@beltarl.1240]

Aww, that little girl doing that for the dolphin, how sweet of her. The dophin's reaction is priceless and just shows their intelligence.❤ Does anyone else feel this incredible need to just jump in that tank give those dolphins a big hug and kiss boop their noses and say good dolphins, we love you, you are so, so special, so cute and so adorned! Wouldn't that be awesome if we could communicate like that with them and other animals, maybe in an alternative universe😮😊

[@heatherdemouey2004]

That little girl is a machine lol!! She was cutting them cartwheels!! Very cute video!! 😍

[@mamapetillo8675]

Ok, first; that wasn’t a smile. That’s the shape of their face. The smile was in the dolphin moving his head, following her movements. It’s such a rush to feel that you’re communicating with an intelligent animal. Yep, this little girl will definitely remember this forever, as will everyone else that was there. What a moment! Beautiful. And I love her little celebratory dance. What a character.

[@JStankXPlays]

That dolphin is a great human trainer!

This is extremely rare to get this sort of response from a captive animal, definitely a core memory for this youngster. Thats awesome ❤

[@lauriehughes4478]

Well said!

[@silverlily4681]

Not rare at all

[@HappyQuailsLC]

Sometimes animals kept in captivity like this were rescued and unable to be released, so they can have a lot more interactions with people than usual.

[@howardebenstein3204]

Maybe a core memory for the dolphin also. 😊

[@gregoryness3331]

@@HappyQuailsLC "sometimes" i agree... but the majority don't, hense why I said it will be a core memory. While I visited the zoo or safari Park as a kid! None of the animals interacted with me as far as I remember so seeing videos like this is cute. Personally I haven't ever seen a dolphin in real life as I stay in Scotland❤

[@mckrackin5324]

Most of them are well taken care of and if they are freed, they just come back. They make real connections with their handlers. Sadly, not all of them are well taken care of though.

I think that dolphin knew that the best way of replicating her cartwheels was to flip above the water but knew she wouldn't see it. So instead he did the flips under the water. Highly intelligent!

@@Lavalotustop6727 the joy I was referring to relates to the known fact that dolphins enjoy interacting & connecting with humans. I’ve seen it in the open ocean & clearly this little girl sparked the interest of this dolphin. It IS sad to see animals in captivity. And it is pure joy to be reminded that we can connect with them, even when the circumstances aren’t ideal.

[@megblackwolf5470]

@@jamieh8101it’s not only not ideal, the dolphins are held against their will for our entertainment. It’s shame on us. No matter how ‘cute’. They deserve better than to be a sentimental factor while being held captive. It’s not right. There is no celebration here.
