Big doesn't mean better; Dolphins are stupid

Dolphins may have big brains but a South African-based scientist says lab rats and even goldfish can outwit them.

Paul Manger of Johannesburg's University of the Witwatersrand says the super-sized brains of dolphins, whales and porpoises are a function of being warm-blooded in a cold water environment and not a sign of intelligence.

"We equate our big brain with intelligence. Over the years we have looked at these kinds of things and said the dolphins must be intelligent," he said.

I wonder how they would explain dolphins saving humans from shark attacks....& in some cases dragging humans back to the shore.

Dolphins are SO overrated. yes they are smarter than a lot of other animals but not THAT smart. Actually like the title says dolphins are pretty stupid.

Is that the standard for being a smart animal?

I guess it would depend on how likeable the person they are saving is.
