No fin? No problem for this adventurous pup!
Dolphins have been known as the “dogs of the sea,” because they’re so playful, lovable and friendly towards humans. They can also be shockingly smart if they’re ever in a jam and need help like in this amazing rescue. For many years, scientists have even trying to determine exactly who is the more intelligent species — dogs or dolphins — and if the two similar-but-very-different creatures can even be compared.
In the following video we meet one very brave dog who is bridging the gap between man’s best furry and finned friend, an amazing black Labrador retriever named Kira. You might think a dog meeting dolphins in the wild for the first time might be a little frightened, but not Kira. This adventurous pup is known by her owners as “an ordinary dog with extraordinary habits,” because she works with a group of ecotourists off the coast of southern Mozambique to help discover dolphins in the Indian Ocean.
If you’ve ever swam with dolphins before, you know what an incredible experience it can be. Kira is known as the “dolphin spotter” on the boat, but she’s also a big help in introducing humans to her friends in the ocean.
Isn’t wonderful to see two very different species can get along so well?
