Dolphin Smile

” The Cetacean hold an important lesson for us. The lesson is not about whales and dolphins. There is at least some moderately convincing evidence that there is another class of intelligent beings on earth beside ourselves. They have behaved beningly and in many cases affectionately towards us. We have systematically slaughtered them. Little reverence for life is evident in the whaling industry- underscoring a deep human failing. In warfare, man against man, it is common for each side to dehumanize the other so that there will be none of the natural misgivings that a human being has slaughtered another.”   CARL SAGAN
