Hi, Markku, how are you doing :d
So today facts are about the dolphins, why I don't see any potatoes here, that's strange!

What do you mean no potato!! I'm always here, hiding if ma man needs some help! :D
And I also have a feeling that these dolphins can easily win a chess match against me.

Hi yaan, I'm doing fine. There are always potatoes in my comment section.

Hahahah. This is funny. Do you mean a happy or sad potato?

Probably both of them :D

Dolphins are amazing. Watched alot of documentaries about their intelligence and kindness towards people.

As you say the dolphins is one of the very intelligent mammals, there are studies that indicate that they can be recognized by the tone of their "voice"

This is a great information unknown to me before now.

Is there a list of encephalization quotient amounts somewhere?

I can't even understand what the hack is encephalization quotient.
Encephpalilpazion quioten, I can't even pronounce it :D

Me neither. I just copy pasted those words from this post and didn't even try to read them. They are too hard for my brain on a Friday night

Sometimes I'm ashamed of my stupidity when I comment on markkujantunen, posts.
Maybe I should just go and never come back =((

Please don't, you're very entertaining. You don't even have to be. It's a pleasure to have you here.

Nevermind I somehow missed it when looking at the wiki page

Wow I did not know that curious fact and also that he lives in the surroundings of my country. Thank you for your contribution and Good Day! ..
👍😎

Nice article dolphins are very close to human beings hence you can see them playing with humans .... They are a very great playful mammals

wow that is cool, but a really I thought it would be the Chimpanzee because man and chimpanzee share 99% of their genes, imagine when they find life on other planets and from those aliens only 1% of the genes separate us, there is a lot of difference between a Large Hadron Collider and a stick to get termites out. that's why the The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy the dolphins are alien: D
