That's right I'm a zookeeper. :D I've worked with sea lions at a couple different facilities including SeaWorld.

Dolphins are also bullies sometimes. Males will work together to gang up on females to separate them from their group and take turns raping them.

I did a paper in college on it. With no official language, for liability purposes signs need to be printed in multiple languages. I've seen literally ten different languages on some signs. More ink, bigger signs, more money, etc. And citizenship tests need to be offered in any language asked for, which creates similar problems. Then the children of those people grow up isolated from their classmates. And not every school is able to offer multilingual teachers. We are strapped for teachers as it is. I was a middle school teacher I speak French but I had no clue how to help the students who spoke Spanish and I had a few who spoke Hindi and one who spoke Korean. The school said I just had to do my best. They couldn't learn and I didnt know how to help them. No one wins. Again the question I ask is almost every other country does it why not us?

True. They're the only animal known to hunt blue whales, the largest animal in the planet!

it would also mean that in order to gain citizenship someone would need to show proficiency in that language, eliminating the language barriers. it would also limit language barriers that kids have in schools since schools wouldn't need to try and teach kids who don't speak the same as the teacher it's not fair to them. and then they isolate themselves from the other kids that's not fair either

having an official language doesn't mean you're not allowed to speak something else it just means places are not legally obligated to print things in every language. we could be like Canada have English and French. or maybe English and Spanish. or maybe just English like Britain. almost every country in Europe has an official language why not the US?

technically killer whales are the largest dolphins in the world, however, all dolphin species are actually types of toothed whales, so it is a whale!

You can't debate gun control if you can't breathe. I'm still on the fence about the straw thing but I'm glad we're taking environmental action more seriously

@dean_winchester__ except our public school system is widely agreed to be terrible...plus if EVERYONE had a degree then a degree itself would be obsolete. Having basic economic knowledge isn't a "conservative" idea it just means knowing how and why free college isn't really viable in this country

I used to work with penguins they sometimes did this but they never seemed to enjoy it they got really flustered and called to the others and the others would call back and they seemed to prefer it when we put them back in the flock

That's actually a sea lion. You can tell by the large front flippers and social interactive behavior. Seals have small front flippers with nails and they're pretty shy. Cute picture
