DOLPHINS PREY STRATEGY

Dolphins are considered to be an intelligent animal. This video shows a remarkable strategy of bottlenose dolphins to hunt their prey. By beating its tail down hard, the dolphin stirs up the shallow silt. And by swimming in a circle it creates a ring of rising mud around a shoal of fish. The contracting rings acts as a net and traps the fish. The fish in effort to escape jump straight into the open mouths of waiting dolphins.
