Science Bulletins: Whales Give Dolphins a Lift

[dwc211283]

then the orca ate it

[pinkyrose63]

Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheLilScarab]

=D

[EvanescentBloo]

This put such a big smile on my face. :)

This clip is simple but its message is deep and it might make you think. Or not. Either way take care of yourself

[Thyalwaysseek]

That is just so very cool....

[MusicalAnna101]

I wish I was the dolphin... WWEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! :D :D :D :D

[LoaSilverSword]

@Textra1 Yes, cetaceans do have responsibilities, and the fact that they are already fulfilling them is one of the reasons why they should have rights. Don't you know that countless people have been helped by dolphins in the ocean? That dolphins and orcas in their natural habitat never commit murder against people (in case you heard about Tião, I think his case qualifies as self defense)? They are fulfilling their part of the Golden Rule, we are not.

[BackInsight]

Cool!

[scottwebb]

I think what you're seeing is a type of Hug.

[stellarworker]

What fabulous photography. Too bad there is no video of this.

[theblue9589]

I think its the whales hood ornament

[Textra1]

This 'Rights for Cetaceans' thing is absurd. Shall we give them a seat at the UN too? What is so special about dolphins and whales that they deserve special rights over other animals? Can my cat get a declaration of rights too? If you want animals to have rights, then they must have responsibilities too. The next time a cat eats a mouse, it must be charged with murder. This is the logical extension of what animals rights advocates want, yet they never seem to mention the responsibilities part.

[katrinalisa2002]

@Textra1 as natural as you being arrested next time you eat a burger for murdering a cow.

[faron27]

very cool

[fernandatralala]

:)))))

[NOTCUTOUT]

After watching this video I can't help but dislike the Japanese whalers even more

[urbanurban12]

@NOTCUTOUT Hehe americans... you dislike whom ever the "mediacircus" spoon-feed you with ...grrr whalehunters...argh global warming...oooooo Ghaddaffi; wonder what will be the next flavour of the week.

[TheRedWarden]

@urbanurban12 you support the killing of intelligent creatures and support Ghadaffi? if so ,you're a terrible person

[NOTCUTOUT]

@urbanurban12 you're an idiote.

[tieuwest]

Absolutely amazing. I love Dolphins and whales. They are so smart and friendly. Sometimes I feel bad for dolphins for being kept in captivate. They are freedom creatures and all they need is the ocean not the small pool

[sjcottsi]

100th monkey. All the antics at Sea World has spread.

[niceguy1060]

This reminds me of the polar bears and sled dogs playing together> world peace !

[jeckeljoan]

What is the song?

[yanktankdriver]

There is always an interaction among animal species including man. Do us a favor and do not vote.



[lemmik1900]

This video is totally awesome. It proves to me what I already knew. These gentle giants on the sea are as smart as i figured

[CrissBlackHawk]

And the fucking humans are like "fuck that we need money"

[pnunesmartins]

I love movies with subtitles. Thank you!

[BrokePimpStyles]

A NatuReal WonderfilledNest!

[kristania777]

they're definitely playing.. look at that smile on the whale.. :D

[XtremePacifist]

Humans are not the only victims of the violence and greed that men in high places like governments, corporations, and military organizations, through war and capitalism, whales and dolphins, beautiful and intelligent, are being destroyed by military activity and commercial, corporate enterprising.

Man is the most destructive creature on our planet, and we allow the worst, greediest, most violent men to take positions of power within governments and corporations, and then allow them to control

[Textra1]

@XtremePacifist

It's time to grow up. You sit there, the recipient of the wonders that technology and corporate enterprising bring and have the audacity to say it's an evil. Next time you feel like taking a crap, go outside, dig a hole and bury it because using the plumbing in your house is using the fruits of capitalism. Or better yet, next time you feel like making an absurdly childish comment on the internet, developed by the military btw, just STFU instead. Ass

[HATEswag]

PLEASE WHITE PPL AND ASIANS STOP KILLING IN GENERAL

[link4265]

Speak up I can't hear what you're saying.

[nickblackburn78]

Beautiful

[azalias114]

@thebboyheartbreaker actually no its just humans themselves who separate themselves from nature and humans who are the most evil of species

[signboyy]

@azalias114

not all humans are evil just the super-rich rulers who seek to take away our humanity and turn us into robots. but of course the super-rich dont subject themselves to the repression they are creating for the rest of us.

[kmkfiction2]

presumably misplaced sexual energy

[goner19]

duh...we are the only dumb ass species on the planet

[ishudbesurfing]

why did humans get so out of touch with nature? There's a modern philosopher (I can't remember his name) who tells us that humans are "speciests" which is a type of racism towards other species... Ignorantly we see ourselves as superior to other life forms but the reality is all life is interdependent and one system. It went something like that...

[signboyy]

@ishudbesurfing

christianity is what separated humans from nature

which is why that superstition needs to be outlawed so we can create a humanist sustainable utopia

[thebboyheartbreaker]

@signboyy

No, intelligence and self awareness is what separates humans from nature.

[signboyy]

@thebboyheartbreaker

all mammals are intelligent and self aware.

the only advantage humans have is a voicebox which gave rise to language then accumulation of knowledge through writing.

put a toddler human in isolation in a jungle near banana trees to sustain it and let it grow up and it probably wont learn to speak or write. in essense no different from a monkey.

[kmkfiction2]

@signboyy

Nonsense. Homo sapiens have the benefit of a reorganized frontal lobe that is not widely distributed in mammals, not even other apes. You are talking out of your ass.

[signboyy]

@kmkfiction2

chimpanzees can communicate complex ideas using sign language just like apes can. also dogs and cats have been showed to be able to do math such as addition and subtraction using their paws to tap out the number to the answer which was posed to them.

all mammals are smart the only advantage that humans have is being able to interact using words with enables learning to read and learning abstract concepts. if we engineer other animals to talk they can learn abstract concepts

[kmkfiction2]

@signboyy

Look, I studied primatology and human evolution in undergrad. In short, you are making sweeping generalizations based on the abilities of, let me guess, Koko, Kanzi and Washoe despite tremendous logical gaps. By analogy, chimps use sticks to "fish" for termites but it is likewise unfounded to claim they are toolmakers in any comparable sense.

[signboyy]

@kmkfiction2

why would you think koko is just a fluke rather than representative of the abilities of all gorillas?

what do you expect chimps to do to be considered toolmakers? do they have to build iron foundries in the jungle to be considered toolmakers?

by your logic 10,000 years ago the humans who threw sharp sticks at animals & gathered fruit would not adequately qualify as toolmakers. despite the fact that they were as smart as we are due to having the same sized brains/brainpans

[kmkfiction2]

@signboyy

youtube search "AMAZING ANIMAL ATTACK"

By your strained logic, what, we may properly infer the imprinting behavior seen therein "really" means that leopards are compassionate towards baboons? Please.

[kmkfiction2]

@signboyy

Yes, sociobiology is replete with "flukes". As humans, we must not jump to unfounded conclusions with no scientific basis, e.g., sharks attack people "due to mistaken identity".

Your 10,000 year old hypothetical shows how little you know about prehistory. First, that was when we had the Neolithic revolution...we were not primitive in any sense 10,000 years ago. Moreover, even our immediate precursor, H. erectus had a REORGANIZED frontal lobe, i.e., intelligence doesn't = intelligence

[signboyy]

@kmkfiction2

maybe you just need to believe koko is a fluke in order to preserve your identity as being separate from animals and to preserve your religious delusion which is based on the idea of humans being separate from animals.

shark attacks are very rare, only a handful each year. do you think those are flukes and that most sharks like to play with humans like dolphins do?

10,000 many humans had sharp sticks and not much else....like monkeys

[Matson2010]

@signboyy and @kmkfiction2 you both need to chill out and make like magical unicorns and be gay 

[signboyy]

@Matson2010

i heard that homophobes are self hating closeted gay guys

[Matson2010]

@signboyy really?!?! please elaborate on your extensive amount of knowledge on this subject :)

[signboyy]

@Matson2010

you are the one making homophobic statements

[Matson2010]

@signboyy i think u r a homosex freak

[signboyy]

@thebboyheartbreaker

gorillas can communicate complex ideas with sign language. if we use bioengineering to give them human voiceboxes and allow them to keep their gorilla brains they would still be able to hold verbal conversations as complex as humans.

we are just the latest evolution of the animal kingdom, but we are still animals.

[scubaseven7]

@ishudbesurfing Thats the biggest lie in human history I think. We are not superior, and we are not intelligent. We kill the very thing we depend on, how dumb are we?!

[answerOfstupids]

@MaiCupOfTea yess it is...lol

[answerOfstupids]

Humans used to have fun time too once....

[sebspliff20]

that dolphin is getting paid back for saving Elian Gonzalez

[SoutheGarden]

this is freaking beautiful

[BluberryMuffin652]

Seeeee people, Even in the animal kingdom very different, yet somewhat similar species are FRIENDS. They like each other! we can learn from this. stop hating, love a whale! (or dolphin!)

[naromi18]

would love vid of this event...

[curlygirly729]

o m g this is the cutest thing everrr

[Amcacs5654]

I love watching videos to look at pictures. NOT!

[crystaldragonwoman]

WOW

[TheHockeyHawk]

Getter on video!!



[velocimasterx7]

Whale: "Do you see ANY intelligent life up there?"

Dolphin: "...nope nothing."

[geminiboi007]

@velocimasterx7 LOL, that's one of the best comments ever written for one of these youtube videos;-)

[GNARK1LL420]

Haters gonna hate.

[brotherwoo]

apparently they listened to rodney king...

[BoscoBurckhardt]

maybe the whales are trying to show the aliens that the dolphins should be saved before the humans, and that tsunami in Japan really did screw the world up to no return.

[mollyne1]

This is a reason why we have to understand animals, unlike us, understand the message of peace. That two different beings of a different species or race can live in harmony and enjoy each other. Just because someone is different doesn't mean they're bad.

[jojo1DrSeuss]

am i the only one who thinks this is cute?? although i would have liked to see an actual VIDEO.

[SuperAri1111]

28 sharks disliked this

[1964nickel]

Ahh, I understand. The Intergalactic Space Highway is comin' through and we gotta all vacate by Dec of this year, right? Got it!

[niraku321]

the dolphin's saying "please don't kill anymore whales, we loves them."

[rano0672]

@niraku321 And the whales are saying "please don't kill anymore dolphins too, we loves them."

[HalofanWoWSN]

@rano0672 AND THE humans are saying "Fuck you both we kill....."

You don't like it? It's the fucking truth

deal with it

TUCKER DID IT

[a2zhandi]

I think they're conspiring against humanity. Because dumb ass sheep ain't smart enough to fix our flawed society!

[icyspicytx]

animals are so much more than what we pretentious humans think :)

[darthbozo]

But what if the whale says, ok dolphin, now its my turn to ride on your back ?

[darthbozo]

WOW, just when I thought it was only pigs that gave piggy back rides..

[snorkelmaui2008]

Video on this site

[valleytile]

the dolphin is trying to see where all the garbage and pollution is coming from!!! they know it is from land... and so do we.

[zzztubazzz]

fucking fake shit i know

[aguyatthebeach]

That whale has a pet dolphin... or perhaps the other way around. lol

[sorafreak93]

aw..kawaii ^^

[AllygankerOfficial]

great echo the dolphin music in the background.

[Klept2]

so, can we stop killing the whales now

[bcappelletty]

@Klept2 nope

[PetrushkaDead]

They didn't show when the whale ate the dolphin... ugh!

[mycki1020]

@PetrushkaDead

Whales don't eat dolphins...

Whales eat krill...

[MrFeshel]

why was this in my history

[imac846]

whales and dolphins planning world domination in 2012

[laurensneakysmile]

this is the cutest thing I have seen in 2012!

[ninjaman449]

@hollowmenrule it wasnt a video of it only a video of pictures

[kdwormy]

Gotta love the porn music in the background.

[hollowmenrule]

boo hoo, complain complain

[jlg395]

Could the dolphin be injured and the whale is lifting it out of the water so that it can breathe?

[Corkian]

@jlg395 Interesting question... Those dolphins seem healthy, but who knows: they "hide" the diseases very well, and these animals help the members of the same Pod when they're ill. Maybe the whales do the same, but with another species (not only between themselves).

[meadowfrance]

Screw evolution.. "survival of the fittest" my aaass. Animals are smart enough to know that God created and loves them and as you can see they're having a grand old time in Hawaiian waters. They're obviously at peace with life.

[dojokonojo]

@meadowfrance Nah, the Darwinian model of evolution is just incomplete. And in science, if a theory is incomplete, you modify it. Invoking miracle is just giving up. You never do that science. Why do animals cooperate and socialize? The answer is still the same. Survival.

[weaternpi]

hawaii still sucks

[LeftForSteak5]

They are planning their invasion to take over the world.

[buffpatto1987]

See dolphin and whale make friendship why can't Americans and Muslims?

[Zofnok]

This is a great example of how animals are smarter than humans! because despite their HUGE differences these 2 mammals get along quite nicely. They dont worry about what snookies up to on the j. shore, they dont care about winning the lottery or that type of thing, these guys are just livin' life, and thats what its all about.

[Joshtb22]

@Zofnok I think your an idiot and your referencing is bad. They're animals they think like animals so of course there not going to worry about things they don't of or can't comprehend.

[Zofnok]

@Joshtb22 Ok lets talk about things that they understand just as much or maybe even more than we do... You can threaten a whale with death, or torture, but the whale wont ever follow your orders because it probably wont be afraid of death, or maybe the whale simply doesnt understand, either way you cannot control a whale with fear. But humans on the other hand, we are controlled with fear each and everyday and most dont even know it. Think about it for a while.

[Cosmo1093]

@Zofnok Humans and dogs usually get along quite well too, despite their huge biological differences. One reason dolphins and whales don't worry about pop culture is because they are not capable of developing the prerequisite technology required to follow/create pop culture. If you take a knife/sword and stab a whale or dolphin, and they WILL cry and try to escape. Pretty much everything is afraid of pain/death. You can't threaten a whale with anything because you cannot COMMUNICATE with it.

[lawtonokieguy]

Now only if people could get along like this...

[coyoteshark]

Its King Snorky plotting with allies !

[xraevicious]

:]

[shoppinmadnesz22]

it's like the "sea version" of Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey's famous lift from Dirty Dancing :)

[BarlowFilm]

if i wanted to look a pictures i would go on google images.

[SuperBrendanmac]

Whalefin



[air3141]

some of you commentors are real idiots.

[MyHaloReachVideos]

Stupid lazy dolphin!

[13elsyd13]

are you sure he wasnt trying to eat the dolphin? xD

[lostcanadiansoul]

probably raping that poor whale in the blow hole

[jreyes30]

so fascinating! love this 

[MrMiamiswaggz305]

Cool =D

[gdstark]

Less powerpoint, more video of the actual events. Hopefully scientists carry camcorders.

[stinkybigfoota9e]

i scratch your back, you scratch mine

[dudeisodumb]

huh, i thought they'd show a video

[ipityfool]

Playful interaction? Pssshhh. The whale's just lifting weights, duh.

[sirgrundel]

and no video camera...... really.. ?

[djgabrielpresents]

Israel and Iran should watch this

[hollowmenrule]

why do people "dislike" this? lol.

[FugazStar]

@hollowmenrule

well, I guess most of us were expecting a video. That would have been a lot better than a couple of pictures.

[USGiorgi]

@hollowmenrule

They're probably Japanese. They don't like whares or dorphins!

Fuck you whare! And fuck you dorphin!

[industriales31]

@hollowmenrule Maybe because they expected a video, not just photos...

[axderaq]

somethings...the scientific mind will never comprehend

[jtt0001]

This the dwarf tossing of the animal kingdom. It's only a matter of time before one of those whales gets drunk and a dolphin gets hurt.

[dspin23]

saw this on yahoo...so many great pictures and not one fucking video? shitty scientists..

[knaanLa]

@dspin23 because scientist are observational people, pictures seem very convenience to talk your time and stare at the picture and analize what is going on..............i think that is why they using these picture...............except it shitty boring for us youtubers to watch bunch of pictures

[prognosi911]

@dspin23 I think it is funny how yahoo keeps sending us to google :)

[canef3ar]

@dspin23 who said it was the scientist that took the pictures? retard.

[aquaphoenix831]

Humans would do well to learn from nature...

[EmZajex]

This is how the uprising begins

[lindaamenzies]

Probably helping the dolphin along because dolphin is weary from all the radiation here from Fukushima. Pretty soon all kinds of stuff will was up on our shores....along with the dolphins and whales...enjoy it while you can people.

[savinlovesyou]

Humpback whale got humped, by name it should hump:P

[iLuvDl2unk3nlvlunkey]

wow if animals can set aside their differences, why can't ppl?

[WeNeedClosure]

PROOF that animals have feelings.

[donalduckin25]

I think the dolphin speaks humpback.

[crosswind76]

Very Cool!!

[lollipop19ish]

what's with some people saying s*** about Japanese people D:

[qevvy]

@lollipop19ish People are probably annoyed at the Japanese refusal to halt whaling, particularly mass dolphin kills.

[InvestWebbot]

Dolphin = F-14 Tomcat

Whale = U.S.S Aircraft Carrier.

[TheRidersChoice]

@InvestWebbot Seagull = submarine?

[RoCkbunny769]

That's why we're called the Aloha State! Friendship, love, and rainbows. We definitely have a lot of rainbows... lol.

[Armageddon360]

@RoCkbunny769 Dude what's Hawaii like? Is there a little violence? Are the people peaceful and respectful? What's the economy like? The environment? I can tell you that Louisiana, the state in which I live in, is nothing but complete chaos.

[RoCkbunny769]

@Armageddon360 I was kind of joking, but it is nice here. The economy is recovering, and the people are sweet, kind, and happy. Maybe you should visit.

[culturaleyes]

"I'll never let you go!"

1:36 There isn't anything complex about this. It's simple. They don't hate each other because they are different. That's something dumb humans do.
