Absolutely they are , it's our idea what intelligence is , which is subject to constant change in defintion and increasingly looking rather stupid and destructive . animals are intelligent in their own right .
11:21 Yes it is clear why they help the fishermen and they do get food out of it. I've never even heard of speculation regarding this as there's no room for it. The dolphins push the fish toward the fisherman's nets and signal when to cast their net. Then when the net hits the water the remaining fish turn 180 and get pushed back right into the dolphins. It just makes fishing practically effortless for both spepcies and they always get a big catch.
I'm not surprised, I know a lot of these open ocean fish and mammals that hunt large schools of fish work together to all mutually benefit off the prey. And considering how fond humans usually are towards dolphins they've probably already noticed how humans fish as well.
Yes, idk why it was such a strange phenomenon that they’re helping fishermen, given their empathy and intelligence. And also narrator said they are not doing it to get any fish, but where’s the proof of that? I can see them fishing and helping the human fishermen there in that final story, and getting easy catches underwater as a result.. Besides that note, lovely video!
True story: I went on my senior high school trip to Jamaica, in 1988. I grew up on the coasts of New Jersey, so ocean creatures were a regular part of my life. One day in Jamaica, we went snorkeling in a protected bay: there was a net out there that didn't allow stuff like sharks in. I had never been near a coral reef before, so was quite interested in swimming around the edges of it to see what I could see. I was not brave enough to swim OVER the reef, though. So, I was in water about ten feet deep and spied a shell that looked cool, and dove to pick it up. That is when a very large shadow moved over me. I rolled over to look and here was my first and last experience with an ocean sunfish. It was HUGE. And I instantly became and olympic swimmer back to shore. The life guards laughed at me. It had floated over the net, on its side. And they said its mouth was the size of a silver dollar. I didn't care. That thing scared me so badly that I spent the remainder of snorkeling in 3 feet of water very close to shore. That actually wasn't bad because there were swarms of tiny bright fish there to see. It would have been nice to have been warned about huge harmless fish, though.
@@debraowen6723 Thanks, but I think it would have been way cooler if I had known the thing couldn't and wouldn't hurt me, so maybe I could have enjoyed my meeting with it.
I mean, sure, but it’s not murder when you’re literally a predator and it’s your food. They don’t save their food. But they do save other intelligent species as he said in the video. There are zero recorded deaths caused from dolphins. So what you should say is they are 100% likely to save creatures similar enough to them. And ~90% likely to kill “prey” species
@@Varphi_ They beat porpoises to death for fun. They don't eat them, they don't compete for food, they just do it for fun. They torture and kill pufferfish to get high. They gang up and murder baby dolphins so their mother will be ready to breed sooner.
Animals are extremely intelligent. They too convey and feel emotion, strategy, trial and error tactics. They’re incredible. There’s a few reasons my Egyptian ancestors were enthralled by them. Btw if you see this Steve, you’re a charmer 😊
@@schmingbeefin4473 they're absolutely adorable as well. Also the fact they see things in a slower motion than us,and the way they move so fast to us makes it look like they sort of glitch as they move. Super cool
I never believe in reincarnation but whenever i hear a story about dolphins saving people i just cant help but think about it. My grandad's friend was a spear fisherman, when a pack of sharks circle him around. He thought he was a goner but then suddenly the sharks left, he look up and saw a herd of dolphins. They lift him up and carried him all the way to shallow waters. Listening to this as a kid made me love dolphins more
The Sunfish was my favorite fish when I was a little kid I wanted to be a marine biologist when I was like seven I grew up on the ocean then one day I broke my neck diving into it now I'm paralyzed now I fear the ocean LOL
In that situation in Brazil the fishermen give some of the fish to the dolphins. It’s not Altruism or them playing. I’ve seen that documentary and they show the fishermen giving the dolphins fish.
The dolphins herding fish to the shallows where fishermen are waiting with nets is a mutual benefit. As the fish try to escape the nets they're easy pickings for the dolphins. BBC Earth.
I read somewhere years ago that in many/most cultures on sea coasts the oldest stories are those involving dolphins (sometimes other sea mammals) either rescuing humans and bringing them to shore or saving them from sharks. I think the reasoning is pretty simple. Dolphins know the sharks are a threat to pretty much all mammals. Dolphins know humans are mammals that live mostly out of the water and can't defend themselves from sharks. Dolphins know humans aren't a threat and generally either play with or feed them. Therefore it's enlightened self interest for dolphins to keep humans safe. Or more simply, dolphins see humans and think, "Oh, the fun & food people! We have to keep them safe!"
I've been swimming with wild dolphins before, I could whistle them up with my Shepherd's whistle it was awesome.... been catching a few sharks lately and I've seen parasites on them I tried to scrape them off with my knife before throwing them back
Dolphins have reached a level of intelligence where their interactions with other species isn’t purely survival driven anymore. Similar to humans, dolphins will interact with other species for recreational purposes. They are capable of both benevolence and cruelty for its own sake, like humans. Dolphins will even interact with other species for… romantic motivations. This too can be motivated by either positive or negative intent depending on the dolphin’s personality. Dolphins are also intelligent enough to take their own lives under extreme stress or depression, like humans. They’ll swim down deep and simply hold their breath until they die. It seems as though they’re one of the highest known states consciousness has evolved to on the planet outside of humanity.
Playing is a show of intelligence. Very few mammals get the benefit of doing it, and those that do all show heightened intelligence compared to those of their relatives that don't. Dolphins are a perfect example of this.
I don't thik that is true... Most mammals play, to some extend, but some species have to be more careful about predators than others. I think playing is not a sign of intelligence, but a sign of having little to fear in your environment.
I had a friend who is terrified of whales. He has never been to an ocean nor seen a whale, but has an unexplainable fear of whales. Apparently it's called Cetaphobia.
I like whales specially Whale-Sharks which is very common in here but i dont like the ocean specially when i cant see the seafloor, i will just stay at the boat if there is also alot of seagrass
The guy rescued off the coast of Ireland was Ruairí McSorley AKA Frostbit Boy. When I heard on the news that he was found miles out to sea surrounded by Dolphins, I thought to myself, that sounds about right.
the last story, the dolphins actually get a cut from all the fish they help catch. this is what you could call a sybiotic relationship, they help us catch the fish, in return we feed them.
Sea creatures are absolutely beautiful! I know the ocean has so much mystery that it’s a bit terrifying at times, but you have to admit it’s absolutely breathtaking! (Pun intended) It’s fascinating how compassionate animals can be! 💙💚💙💚
Not very many people get to see a sunfish. There are even less that have seen a baby Sunfish. The babies are so tiny and to even think that this little creature, will grow up to be targets bony creature on amd off land. I mean if you ever look at an elephant having a baby. You see the baby and you already know that's this baby will grow up big and strong. The Sunfishes babies around about the size of a pinky finge, fingernail.
There are fishermen stories passed down from generation to generation that are supposedly true of whales saving shipwreck victims. All they had to do was call out the whale's name and it will come to pick you up on its back and take you to shore.
I think they save people and other creatures to keep predator population down...like they don't want for instance, sharks to get used to prey in there territory.
You said dolphins don't get any food when they're helping the Brazilian fisherman, but thats not true, they herd the fish toward the fisherman. Then the fisherman throw their nets, the fish that don't get caught in the nets, swim back towards the Dolphins to get away from the Nets and they're caught in between the two and it's much easier for the Dolphins to eat.
I think they are helping us so we don’t consider eating one? if they have that intellect, maybe they’re just doing us solids, and in the near future we do solids for them😂
I think a lot of animals save people and other animals to deny dangerous predators a meal or to avoid having blood and stuff spread through their area.
Splashing sends more signal to predators than blood,sound of splashing travels way more than blood,blood is limited to spreading in sea and being concerned enough to smell by others

The Puffer fish is like "Oh no Dolphins- time to puff up!'
And the Dolphins 'Alright we got em- time to play kids we found another ball...'
I think all fish understand the warm ones need oxygen and help navigating. They understand death and most are wonderfully intelligent.

Some humans like to save other animals. So it would not be too far fetch that other animals like to save other creatures as well, for similar reasons.
