Porpoise killing?! I can't believe I of all people have never heard of such a thing. I mean, I guess because I've always considered them two completely different species that I never looked into their interactions with each other... Now, I do know that adult male dolphins (bottle-nosed, to be precise) have been none to kill calves (baby dolphins) for somewhat unknown reasons. I forget if they were killing both male and female calves or only males when I read about this a few years ago. Apparently, such killings had increased during that time.

So, you're right; dolphins aren't all that peaceful... and neither are people. For those reasons, I really wish these "wild dolphin encounter" businesses would become illegal.
