About
Dolphins are small toothed whales that have a beak-like snout and a curved back fins. Dolphins have become well known for their sociable nature and high intelligence, although not for their rampant sadism. In 1995, television was used to test dolphin self-awareness. Dolphins were shown real-time video of themselves, video of another dolphin and recorded footage. It was concluded that their evidence suggested self-awareness rather than social behavior. Dolphins engage in acts of aggression towards each other. The older a male dolphin is, the more likely his body is to be covered with bite scars. Male dolphins get into disputes over companions and females. Acts of aggression become so intense that targeted dolphins go into exile after losing a fight. Male bottlenose dolphins have been known to engage in infanticide. Dolphins have also been known to kill porpoises for reasons which are not fully understood, as porpoises generally do not share the same diet as dolphins and are therefore not competitors for food supplies
