Horny dolphins molesting swimmers

LONDON (Reuters) - Swimmers have been warned to stay away from a sexually frustrated dolphin off a seaside resort after it tried to lure unwary humans out to sea in a bid to mate with them.

The Times newspaper said on Tuesday that the bottlenose dolphin, nicknamed Georges, had arrived off Weymouth, Dorset, about two months ago after following a trawler across the Channel.

"This dolphin does get very sexually aggressive. He has already attempted to mate with some divers," U.S. marine mammal expert Ric O'Barry told the paper.

"When dolphins get sexually excited, they try to isolate a swimmer, normally female. They do this by circling around the individual and gradually move them away from the beach, boat or crowd of people."

O'Barry said the dolphin, which weighs an estimated 400 lbs (180 kg), would get very excited and rough and try to mate with the swimmer, possibly causing them to drown.

The dolphin also has a fascination for boat propellers and has been injured several times. But it has resisted attempts to move to less-populated waters, the paper said.

Since his arrival at Weymouth, Georges has become a major attraction at the seaside resort with thousands of people taking to the sea in boats to watch him play.

I bet tomorrow you will see hundreds of 49 year old ladies swimming around in the sea. What might have had this effect? I wonder? biggrin.gif

Was all my time spent in this forum just an illusion. I thought I finally found friends! Now are you telling me the truth? I have noone else, except my mom and my fleas! And I see my mom only once per day, and she usually only opens the cellar-door to put some food for me on the stairway, then she locks the door again! THe only thing that keeps me awake and alive is the light of my TV/screen! You realy disapointed me!

What I find amazing is this:

This means that the dolphin is intelligent enough to identify a human female and stupid enough to think he can mate with her.

It means that the skills used to identify the "universal" female are very prominent in a dolphin, but the skill to distinguish between species is undeveloped, which might explain the large amount of interaction they seem to have with humans.

Or something...

Does this remind anyone of a certain episode of King of the Hill? Does anyone here watch that show, other than me?
