The dolphins have a plan…

This is one of the best sayings I’ve received:

Humans think they are smarter than dolphins because we build cars and buildings and start wars etc., and all that dolphins do is swim in the water, eat fish and play around. Dolphins believe that they are smarter for exactly the same reasons.

Don’t know how far it is true, but have a laugh, anyway.  We all need it.  Life is short and uncertain, so don’t take it so seriously.  Have a laugh…otherwise, the dolphins might just have the last laugh!  Read on…
 

Rising sea levels are expected to claim thousands of coastal towns and villages over the next few decades, forcing millions of humans to flee inland. It had been presumed that these areas would be gradually occupied by marine life in an unplanned and chaotic migration. ‘In fact, they’ve already got the whole thing worked out’ explained Professor Ingerson. ‘There are even dolphin equivalents of underwater estate agents who are telling other marine mammals about the most desirable areas and the need to move quickly to avoid disappointment. From our studies it would appear that they are not being completely honest about some of these properties.’

Professor Ingerson also claims that teenage dolphins are already refusing to share with a sibling and arguing about who gets which room. ‘These are highly intelligent mammals but that brings many of the same problems encountered by human societies. They are obviously attracted by the idea of sitting around in armchairs rather than swimming about all day. In fact we are predicting that as dolphins become increasingly sophisticated they will over-exploit their environment causing global cooling and lowering sea-waters. In a couple of centuries time we might even get our houses back.’

And finally, here’s a stress test for us humans:
