TIL Dolphins Get High On Pufferfish πŸ˜‚

avatar

What's up plebs?!

Hope you all enjoying the recent hive massacre, lol. 10 cents coming soon? πŸ˜‚

Anyways, here's a quick fun fact I came across today, hopefully it will bring a smile to your face πŸ˜†

Turns out dolphins live getting high on pufferfish.

Now, they can't eat the whole thing since that would kill em. So instead they just chew them a bit which is enough to get em high and give them hallucinations. And much like humans, they also pass it around like a joint to their dolphin friends, lmao.

Here are a few videos on the subject

Maybe that's why dolphins look hyped all the time ? πŸ˜„πŸ˜‚

However, after doing a bit more digging on the matter it looks like some scientists are skeptical. Some say the recorded incidents are more like accidents that happened just because the dolphins were curious about the pufferfish while other say they might even not be intoxicated and just exhibiting normal playful dolphin behavior.

But it could also be just another day in the dolphin pod β€” ignore the spiky lethal fish, and the behavior isn’t out of the ordinary. "We’ve observed dolphins pass fish around in normal play behavior," Diana Reiss, a dolphin cognition researcher at Hunter College, told NBC News. source

So I guess the jury is still out on whether dolphins are purposefully getting high or if it's more of a one kind of thing.

Anyways. I prefer the version that they get stoned as fuck on spiky ball fish πŸ˜‚

Ok friends this is for today's useless fact. See you soon with more !

I think in Japan they do Sushi of this fish and they take a bit of careful to do this dish hehhe. Interesting to see other animals using drugs by themselves!

I prefer the version where they are stoned as well, but it might not make much sense in reality.

I've come across this fact before and I do believe they're as high as Mount Everest with their puff and pass fishπŸ˜‚

One certain video I washed was when the dolphin chewed it a bit, passed to the other and started laughing as though Dave Chappelle himself was telling him a jokeπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚βœ¨

To be fair it's like dolphins are always laughing. But maybe they are always stoned πŸ€”
