    Dolphins purposely 'getting high' on pufferfish - Dolphins - Spy in the Pod: Episode 2 - BBC One


    More about this programme: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b03ny6tx Bottlenose dolphins play with toxic pufferfish that secrete a neurotoxin that in high doses can kill but in small doses seemingly have a narcotic effect.

    hope they don,t get caught from the shark police.
    that pufferfish did a quick one.
    heard on the grapevine that the crab,s and shrimps can fence nearly everything.
    only they work for the octopus which turns out has a black belt in octopussy defence.

    hey it,s just what i heard!
