Wtf is that picture? Is that real, Orange dolphins?
It’s gotta be AI. The whole dolphin looks… off.
That site must be satire.Maybe not satire but wtf that image is odd.
It’s a river dolphin. The water is probably dark with tannins.
I had no idea. Thank you!
Me too, but I don’t get an article written about me
That gives the phrase “piss off” a whole new meaning.

Is it just three paragraphs or am I missing something here? It feels like it ends abruptly especially for a SA article
I had no idea dolphins and even fish could smell.
smell is the first sense, pretty much. single-celled organisms already have it.
of course, in some ways, it’s not as easy as for example vision. you need 3 different kinds of photoreceptors to see pretty much all that there is to see, but you need god knows how many chemical receptors in your nose (or all over your cell wall in the case of bacteria or the like) to sense all the interesting stuff floating around.
Sharks are supposed to be able to smell blood from a mile or more away - that’s why throwing chum in the water is a good way to draw them in.
I hadn’t thought about dolphins smelling though - I wonder if it’s closer to tasting, maybe?
They smell like the toys in my mother’s nightstand.
It’s a cetacean micturation week, huh?
I can’t be bothered reading the article but could someone clarify for me: is the fountain of pee the means or the recipient of the communication?
Bruh… RTFA. It’s seriously, like 3 minutes, and that’s if you read the entire thing.

Humans do too all the time because not everyone can hear spoken language.
EDIT: After doing some reading I have now learned about sign language and how I owe the local deaf community a huge apology.
