Hi guys I am new here, so a big hello to you all, I am trying to raise
awareness for our beloved friends the whales and the dolphins,
unfortunately not everyone respects them as friends.
To prove to you that they are "OUR FRIENDS" take a look at this story, if
it grabs you, then please visit the links to learn more about how you can
make a difference.
All the best and thanks for your support.
See below:
Tuesday, 23November, 2004, 08.03GMT Whangarei, New Zealand.
A pod of dolphins is being praised for providing a protective barrier
around a group of swimmers who were being threatened by a great white shark
off the north-eastern coast of New Zealand.
Rob Howes and three other lifeguards were on a training swim about 100
yards off shore at Ocean Beach near here when the dolphins raced in and
herded the group together.
"They started to herd us up, they pushed all four of us together by doing
tight circles around us", Howe said.
He said he spotted a 10-foot-long shark cruising toward the swimmers. They
were surrounded by the dolphins for 40 minutes before they were able to
make it back to shore.
Nice one flipper!
Please return the favour, click on these links and say thank you:

P.s Please do not jump on the "Kill All Sharks Bandwagon", Sharks are swell
creatures also, and remember they are endangered.
Kind regards
Harmonious |
