Sharks and dolphins are thought to be deadly enemies but at Rangiroa atoll, two hours flight north of Tahiti, they share one of the world's most dynamic habitat. Dolphins play in the standing waves created when the current rushing out of the lagoon meet the waves coming in from the sea. The dolphins use the waves to sling themselves into huge leaps.

There's like two dolphin leaps in this whole video. I'm sick of documentaries that are 90% crew hogging the camera and talking about the animal behavior they're supposed to be showing. Give me wildlife footage with non-disruptive narration over it, please. Save the people footage for the "making of" special.
sometimes i wonder what would be worse if i had to choose between running over an innocent animal or a human.........i don't know what would be worse, beings the majority of human beings i meet these days are cold-hearted, manipulative, "me first" pricks........i think that animals may act on instinct, where they may kill while not knowing they're doing something wrong, while humans on the other hand kill, knowing that they're doing something wrong, and enjoy it! i may have to run over the human
Well put. I'm thinking about making a bumper sticker that says, "me first". Bumper sticker are so trashy though. Maybe a shirt with "me first!!!" on the back of it. It would be funny to see how many idiots want to get ahead of me after reading my shirt, lol. I'm to the point now where I basically have to numb myself just to go out in public, where I'm surrrounded by shallow, perspective-lacking "mediocrytes". Sorry for the book. Just wanted to say that I like your thought on nature's moto :-)
Haha cheers. They might be shallow etc, but who can blame them...the moral expectations we put on our own species are just a moral construct...of course we're shallow...it's only natural. Of course i don't agree with people being pricks, but still.
Yes, you are correct that too many people anthropomorphize other animals. And yes, humans are Metazoans (of the animal kingdom). However, dolphins are obviously intelligent compared to most other animals.
They are malicious (if you've seen them toy with jellyfish), and they love examining other animals. If you've seen the whole Japan dolphin thingy, they are very interested in humans, even if it means a pitchfork in the forehead. Their intelligence isn't exactly deniable
