Jules, we always see them at the beach but they're out too far.

The GDs got to swim with dolphins when they went to Disney. Son and DIL said it was worth the whole trip.

I saw a few in Bermuda. Majestic creatures.

I hope the nuns didn't make a habit of playing with dolphins aka sharks again!

It was the nun - ""habit"" thing you found clever huh?

Rather witty.

I just don't know how those men can murder the dolphins. Dolphins and whales are so intelligent and caring. They have hundreds if not thousands of varying communications/sounds. There was a story here (maybe in the past couple of years) of a mother whale who had carried her dead calf thousands of miles during the migration and was almost dead herself because she wasn't eating due to depression over the loss....

The same thing is being said about ""Angel"". Being torn from her mom and pod. She's in a pool over there.

Watch the movie "The Cove", it was a documentary done back in 2009. Very enlightening about the practice of dolphin hunting.

Thanks. & thanks OP. I'm going to look these up.

Nobody was after you gazelle, the fact was you started a thread without any knowledge. You were talking about the dolphin slaughter but called them seals... big difference, not to mention an entirely different species and issue. You claimed to be so horrified by it, but a person that is so disturbed by such violent mutilation of beautiful creatures, might be able to remember what kind of animal it is. Nothing about your thread was genuine, which is why you got criticism for it. When you have a cause you actually believe in, then post about it.

We watched this months ago and it was very well done IMO.

I agree.... although heartbreaking. But it is enlightening and informational.

Oh Jules... get off your high horse for a change.. it is getting so old to reprimand posters about an error they make... or spelling mistake... I apologized for the error I made in that post... but everyone KNEW WHAT I MEANT. If it makes you feel bigger to put someone down so be it... it really just makes you look smaller and mean... mean girl. Reread what you wrote... YOU were the only poster who put me down for the error and YOU keep bringing it up in my face over and over again. Wishing you the best- do not want to fight with you anymore.....
