According to Karyn Gitsham, dolphins can be heroes too. She tells 7 News that she was walking along Carrickalinga Beach in South Australia with her dogs Buddy and Ramsay at her side when one of the dogs ventured into the water, paddled out a distance after a seagull, and was unable to return. Gitsham stuck to the shoreline, following along the beach as the dog was pulled by the current, and ended up slipping off a shoreline cliff into the water herself. One moment she was going under the water and the next she was surfacing to the unnerving sight of a dorsal fin. Given the circumstances, she feared the worst thinking a shark was in her midst; but, amazingly, it turned out to be not one but a pod of dolphins that corralled her and her dog Ramsay, pushing them back to safety.
What do you guys think of this story? It seems once again dolphins have shown not only their intelligence but their gentle nature as well. Feel free to leave any comments you may have below.
