Dolphins Help Save Dog from Drowning!
Dolphins Help Save Dog from Drowning!
On Marco Island, Florida a group of dolphins came to the aid of a lost Dog that had fallen into a canal and couldn't get out. The dolphins made so much noise, it attracted the attention of people living nearby, who then rescued the dog. The Dog was believed to have spent 15 hours in the canal water before he was pulled out by fire personnel and reunited with his owner.
One of the people whose attention was captured by the noisy, demonstrative dolphins said, "They were really putting up a ruckus, almost beaching themselves on the sandbar over there. If it wasn't for the dolphin, I would have never seen the dog.” (Source: ABC7news) He said also if the dolphins hadn't persisted enough to get their attention, they dog would have died in the canal.
The dog had fallen over the edge of a concrete wall down into the water far enough that it had no chance of getting back up by itself. The dog was exhausted from being in the cold water for hours, and most likely suffering from hypothermia.
Dolphins have been known to sometimes help stranded or injured people as well. In 2007, a pod of dolphins formed a ring around a surfer who was injured and bleeding after being bitten by a Great White shark. The surfer survived because they prevented further bites. No one knows exactly why dolphins have intervened in such emergency situations, and helped save the lives of other species.
Suffice to say they are capable of empathy and heroic actions.

We know ! We know fighting, competition, fury, instinct and brutality very well in the world. It is when they behave outside of what we call the norm , in an altruistic and compassionate way that we marvel. We ALL understand selfish survival too well. Let us enjoy the moments that bring us joy that are parallel with what you mention.One of the layers of reality. I understand we can get disillusioned by what we witness and it makes us too ready to expect bad news and see the negative. Let humans see that there might be a different way. That an unspoken testimony like this maybe just maybe might spark or inspire us and make this experience more rich.
