Rapists of the Sea

For nearly two decades, I've been ostracized for my dolphin hatred, never able to justify my inherent paranoia. But recently, I was thumbing through an old issue of The Economist (don't ask) when I happened upon this startling quote:

"Rape, even gang rape, is not unknown among other wild animals. But dolphins have perfected the practice."

I was shocked, to say the least, but also more than a little delighted by the news. Could it be true that, just as I'd long suspected, dolphins aren't really the lovable, gregarious, pranksters-of-the-sea that everybody seems to think they are? Could they actually be gang-rapists?

Do not trust Dolphins.
