Dolphins=Badasses

Here's a story that drives home that dolphins are awesome.

A Dolphin was observed saving whales from looming death. A mother and calf had beached themselves on a New Zealand beach and a dolphin, Moko, showed them how to escape their doom.

“Moko just came flying through the water and pushed in between us and the whales,” Juanita Symes, another rescuer, told the Associated Press. “She got them to head toward the hill, where the channel is. It was an amazing experience.”

I'm glad to hear a story of dolphins helping their family out, for those that don't know, the cetation group is only distinguished between porpoise, dolphin and whale by rather arbitrary size distinctions, they're all the same kind of creature.
