I have a question about fish, and i'm really curious

Question

why are dolphins the only intelligent fish? they do tricks, and can respond to commands, but other fish are just boring, I really do not understand how God could make one fish dog like intelligent and not all the other ones, thanks.

Answer 1

Well, it depends on what your definition of intelligent is. Most animals are intelligent in their own way. If they weren't how do you think they would have survived this long?

As for the dolphins jumping out of the water and not other fish..Great White Sharks in Africa also do this..however when they do it they are trying to catch seals around "seal island" and the seals very acrobatic also they can jump out of the water and do back flips and everything else to get away. Given the shark wins most of those battles but they both are amazing animals.

So again, if your wondering why all the fish cant do tricks like dolphins, i dont know. But what an image would that be all sorts of fish and sea mammals alike jumping out of the water lol

But if your questioning other fishes intelligence you just need to look closer, personally i think most animals are intelligent, just depends on how you see it.

Answer 8

Dolphins?  Are you actually asking about dolphin the fish (maui maui) or dolphin the mammal (porpoise).  Because the dolphin that do tricks are mammals NOT fish.  And sorry to tell you, no fish is intelligent, no mammal is intelligent, other than Homo sapiens.  No animal is EVER boring.  

What planet do you live on?  Or is it you are home schooled.  Or do you go to a religious school?  You are right about one thing.  God really messed up.

I would also suggest you read the Community Guidelines.
