They shouldn’t have become scientists, then, if they bring morals with them when studying animals.

I really roll my eyes at the marine bio dislike of dolphins which seems to boil down to “they do things they know are bad”

Coming from a human, that reeks of someone hating someone else for reflecting their own flaws.

It was only after how many thousands of years after the wheel was invented that women got the right to vote? I agree. It’s ridiculous to judge dolphins. They don’t even cultivate crops yet!

The Haudanashonee clan mothers, Cleopatra, Kush queen mothers and Anasazi at Chaco might like to have a word on that.

Fair point
