      Also, the population of dolphins are drastically declining year on year, but that's okay, right? Because the extinction of a free animal that's ultimately killed for food is okay. What will the "kind humans" eat once the population hits zero? I doubt it will be only legumes, veg, fruit and grains because they don't exclusively eat that now.
