Dolphins ‘deliberately get high’ on puffer fish nerve toxins by carefully chewing and passing them around

https://www.independent.co.uk/envir...refully-chewing-and-passing-them-9030126.html

Dolphins are thought of as one of the most intelligent species in the animal kingdom – and experts believe they have put their ingenuity to use in the pursuit of getting “high”.

In extraordinary scenes filmed for a new documentary, young dolphins were seen carefully manipulating a certain kind of puffer fish which, if provoked, releases a nerve toxin.

Though large doses of the toxin can be deadly, in small amounts it is known to produce a narcotic effect, and the dolphins appeared to have worked out how to make the fish release just the right amount.

Carefully chewing on the puffer and passing it between one another, the marine mammals then enter what seems to be a trance-like state.

The behaviour was captured on camera by the makers of Dolphins: Spy in the Pod, a series produced for BBC One by the award-winning wildlife documentary producer John Downer.

Rob Pilley, a zoologist who also worked as a producer on the series, told the Sunday Times: “This was a case of young dolphins purposely experimenting with something we know to be intoxicating.

“After chewing the puffer gently and passing it round, they began acting most peculiarly, hanging around with their noses at the surface as if fascinated by their own reflection.

“It reminded us of that craze a few years ago when people started licking toads to get a buzz, especially the way they hung there in a daze afterwards. It was the most extraordinary thing to see.”


 
Where are these young dolphins parents?
 
LOL
You know that's a tabloid, right? The author doesn't even know how to write a believable story.

The story in The Independent is backed up by others in The Smithsonian's official magazine & another in ABC News as well though. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smar...o-use-toxic-pufferfish-to-get-high-180948219/

Like all life forms of higher intelligence, the Dolphins are seeking a way to expand their consciousness & feel euphoria. Which makes total sense to me.

Fair enough that it's a legit story. It's still click bait, from all of those links. But that's another discussion.
 
Puffers are a Gateway fish

Soon they'll be main-lineing squid ink AKA squink.
 
This is some high level posting imo.

Sounds fishy..

Is this what makes them rapey?...


but what would be the porpoise of making this up?

Probably to report that dolphins like to have a whale of a good time..
 
those Adolphins puffin on the devil's pussy.
 
I always wondsred why there are no recreational drugs from the ocean. We have weed, coco leaves, poppy plants, mushrooms etc.......nothing ocean based. There has to be some good shit in there somewhere
 
I found a pic of the culprit who's selling this stuff to impressionable young dolphins.
