My friend Ike told me one of the most interesting nuggets of Information I have heard in quite some time.
Recently the Navy in Hawaii did a study on dolphins to determine intelligence. They dumped a bunch of different colored balls into a pool and trained "Dolphin A" to go hit the orange ball, the reward being a fish. The dolphin became very adept at this task and would do it instantly after a while. The researchers then introduced dolphin B into the pool and let the two swim around and play for a bit. They then removed dolphin A from the tank, and again dumped the balls into the pool. The second dolphin, never having seen this done, went to the orange ball right away, touched it, then swam over and waited for his tasty prize.
Do you know what this means? Dolphins have been proven to communicate, this doesnt amaze me as much as the fact that Dolphins have a word for orange! pretty amazing i think.
