That article just keeps escalating, what an unreal read.
Living with a dolphin in the same room for 6 days a week, trying to teach it English, letting him release its sexual urges on the researcher, injecting it with lsd and then after the experiment was over he commits suicide by drowning himself which apparently dolphins can do.
An utterly bizarre and twisted story that yet somehow feels wholesome?
I think you can feel empathy for the researcher and dolphin involved, but it isn’t wholesome; the experiment was traumatic and kind of insane. However, you can see that the caretaker really did try to do her best for Peter.
Fair point, I certainly don't endorse something like this happening again. It was more the human/dolphin friendship and bonding that led me to that conclusion.
The concept of human/animal communication is an interesting field when it doesn't involve abuse.
