Why are sharks afraid of dolphins? (Explained)

I’ll be answering why shake are afraid of dolphins.

This was a fact that I didn’t know until the question was asked.

Why are sharks afraid of dolphins

Sharks are afraid of dolphins because of how intelligent they are.

They’re social creatures that travel in packs called pods.

They work together when defending themself from predators.

The solitary shark when hunting is just a floating target against the dolphin that rolls deep.

How dolphins can kill with their noses

Dolphins can kill a shark by ramming the shark’s belly or their gills.

They have a hard beak that’s supported with a thick bone structure.

You combine this with their better stamina, speed and agility, it creates a very useful weapon.

The number 1 way to stay safe is in their ability to move in numbers.

They have groups that are called “pods” which only duplicates their deadlines when it comes to their snouts.

You have that and their echolocation, it makes them far more intelligent than their predator and allows them to win most one on one interactions against sharks.

The Bottlenose Dolphin

This is the bottlenose dolphin.

These are the best answers to the shark that I could think of to protect other dolphins besides Orcas.

They’re of the most smartest animals on the planet.

They’re found in the West Coast, specifically the Mid-Atlantic and Pacific Islands.

They can live for anywhere up to 40 to 60 years of age and females tend to outlive the males for 60 years or more.

They reach speeds of 22 miles per hour and have a population of 600,000.

And they belong to the Delphinidae family.

I’ll leave you with a clip that expands a little more on what I wrote above.
