"Takoma, the Atlantic bottle-nosed dolphin, had been in Iraq for 48 hours when he went missing on his first operation to snoop out mines. "

... he was spotted at a peace demonstration in sydney yesterday ...

psyko514 · 03-29-2003, 01:16 PM

Takoma and his fellow mine hunters have a special diet, regular medical checks and their own sleeping quarters, which is more than can be said for the vast majority of the military whose domestic arrangements are basic, to say the least

any clue how exactly the find mines? when i first heard about this, i assumed they just go out there and get blown up by the mines, but that would waste money.

do they have some sort of sensor that detects the mine and transmits the signal back to the navy/marines?

Hopefully enough to keep the program running for a while.

This "stupid dolphin" is guiding humanitarian aid ships into the Iraqi port after the Gulf had been seeded with mines.

when they find a mine they drop a marker next to it.

The dolphins use their built in sonar and then plant some sort of flag near the mine to signal.

well you know dolphins have sonar,they can detect the mines from about 2 miles away... Any solid object that they know shouldn't be there,they alert the trainer and then swim to the object and drop a bowie next to it..Then they blow it up... TA-DA

no, but they can capture enemy divers.... they're trained to jam up to a diver with this thing that fits over their nose, and when they bump into their leg, it shackles/cuffs the diver, and sends a marker up to the surface so we can pick his ass up.... true stuff.

They are used to protect our ships and subs when they are in a port.

Well, they slaughtered 250,000 dogs after Vietnam war.. Even after thousands of soldiers had asked to bring their dogs back, but they just killed them all.

Using dolphins is smart, even if you don't agree with it, the military dolphins are likely happier/better treated than any 'circus' ones... Hell, they're probably using the same dolphins from Sea World...

Cheers,
Matt

Fletch XXX · 04-04-2003, 07:50 PM

The use of dolphins can closely be compared to K9 units in police roles.

INstead of the dogs sense of 'smell' the dolphin is prized because of its 'sonar'.

Equally respected, well cared for, and most certainly missed and remembered when they fall.

I can remember seeing groups of 30+ LAPD crying when a 10 or 20 year K9 officer was shot during a drug deal on night, big news in LA, said that dog had caught more bad guys than some 10 year human officers.

I dont think its a bad thing.
