?A Big Cloud of Blood?: The Cause of the Dolphin’s Rescue

According to marine biologist and shark conservationist Tim Hird, “Being saved by another animal is certainly a very romantic notion“. In reality, it is not the case. According to Mike Heithaus, a professor in the Department of biological science at FIU, “The dolphins see a big cloud of blood, they know a shark is in the area“. If they have any young dolphins in the vicinity of the blood cloud they attack the shark to save them from it. They may not be saving Martin or Nan in particular, but their young ones.

Though the notion put by experts is based on scientific facts, the survivor’s story gives a different perspective.
