AIBU to be livid how dolphins are portrayed compared to how they are?

Molly it’s not a smile it’s a self satisfied smirk

Oh my god I love that this is still running!

YABU...mainly because ITS JUST A FUCKING DOLPHIN

That's what they want you to think Witchofwisteria. They are hanging around us a bit too much, they are pure cunts and if what BigChocFrenzy says is true, they are already trained assassins of man.

Wake up! They are evil fuckers and they're tricking us into tooling them up.

I want whatever you’ve been smoking!
Sounds like you’ve been shunned by a dolphin at sea life world or something, and you’ve never got over it 😂. Seriously can’t tell you how much I’m laughing 😂

The US navy has trained dolphins to detect mines and to detect & kill enemy frogmen.
They've used them in action in the Gulf / Middle East

I find that more worrying than dolphins in their natural envíronmemt

Trainers used the mammals "to track down enemy divers, outfitting them with a device strapped onto the head that contains a [simulated] compressed gas needle," Webb writes. "Once the dolphin has tracked you down, it butts you; the needle shoots out and pokes you, creating an embolism."

But they look so smiley...

You tell the gang raping, mother murdering BASTARDS. They deserve culling, can’t abide their smug little fuck faces anyway.

Only male dolphins and ducks gang rape. #NADALT

I am so going to get a stuffed robin and put it in my garden.

Look it up.

I did, it's disturbing. Who thought a dolphin could ejaculate from both ends? Also, it's not very sexy.

I agree with you OP and have also felt this about dolphins. I have watched a few documentaries about their behaviour. I think it was David Attenborough who showed the gang rape aspect - horrific - they are not the cute animals they are made out to be. Many animals aren't.
Orcas chasing, exhausting and drowning whale calves just to eat their tongues was also very upsetting.

There is such a thing as female cunt ejaculation. Look it up.

The Simpsons predicted this

Sorry to jump in but was intrigued by anti robin comments (as they’re my fave bird since I was a child) so did some digging. Not too incriminating as suggests all birds are territorial:

Despite being a seemingly friendly bird, the robin is hugely territorial and very defensive of its territory and I presume that reflects us as an island nation that we will stand our ground," said naturalist David Lindo, who organised the ballot.
In its coverage of the vote, the Guardian said the robin was "openly aggressive" and the Daily Telegraph said it had a reputation among ornithologists for "aggressive territorialism".
It's true that they "jealously guard" their patches, says Grahame Madge of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB). A male will seek to stake out enough territory to provide food for it, a female and their young.

The answer:

Robins forcefully protect their territory from incursions by other robins
But other species are just are aggressive.
Robins are one of only a few bird species that hold their territory all year round - males do not migrate in the winter. They will violently attack a stuffed robin which has been left in its territory, pecking it vociferously and flapping wings vigorously against it.
But they are no more aggressive than most other species, Madge says. "It's something that all birds will do." When it comes to a confrontation, the losing robin will usually withdraw before the conflict becomes fatal. Notwithstanding "bird table rivalry", they co-exist peacefully with other species with different diets.
They're only seen as aggressive because of "the contrast with their reputation as a friendly bird" and their place in folklore and on Christmas cards, say Madge

one of the cunts ejaculated on my hand

I had to look this up on the internet for clarity, but now I'm really quite confused. And disturbed. Has this thread taken a turn for the worse?

Crocodiles are not dinosaurs. Birds are dinosaurs.

I'm behind you on this. I swam with a gang of them last year and one of the cunts ejaculated on my hand. Sex pests, the lot of them.

No you’re not being unreasonable. I’m an ecologist and it constantly flabbergasts me how daft people are. Otters? Massive river weasels who bite each others’ bollocks off in fights

Fuck me

thenaughtyone shes in it for the long haul...

...

I've laughed so hard at this post thanks

I have a severely disabled DC. For so very long I have been saving, researching, planning, hoping, praying, wishing for the once in a lifetime, bucket list, healing, therapeutic opportunity for him to be able to swim and interact with dolphins.

After reading this thread, my dreams are in tatters.

Instead of being seen as Devoted Parent/Carer of the Year 2018, it sounds like someone would be sending in the social workers.

Back to letting him stroke rabbits and cats, and feed ducks, I suppose.

Oh. Wait.....

I've copied this thread to my non-MN using pals. They're agog.
