”The famous Italian diver Enzo Maiorca dove into the sea of Syracuse and was talking to his daughter Rossana who was aboard the boat. Ready to go in, he felt something slightly hit his back. He turned and saw a dolphin. Then he realized that the dolphin did not want to play but to express something. The animal dove and Enzo followed. At a depth of about 12 meters, trapped in an abandoned net, there was another dolphin. Enzo quickly asked his daughter to grab the diving knives. Soon, the two of them managed to free the dolphin, which, at the end of the ordeal, emerged, issued an "almost human cry" (describes Enzo). (A dolphin can stay under water for up to 10 minutes, then it drowns.) The released dolphin was helped to the surface by Enzo, Rosana and the other dolphin. That’s when the surprise came: she was pregnant! The male circled them, and then stopped in front of Enzo, touched his cheek (like a kiss), in a gesture of gratitude and then they both swam off. Enzo Maiorca ended his speech by saying: “Until man learns to respect and speak to the animal world, he can never know his true role on Earth.”
@CalltoActivism @rwindrem Thank you for sharing this moving post.
@CalltoActivism @leeleepoo61 Beautiful!❤ The 4-footed, winged, finned, gilled, & tailed, are truly the purest & best of planet 🌍...yet, far too often are they treated with the respect & awe that they deserve!💞
@CalltoActivism Maybe, hopefully, when humans have finished destroying everything and cease to exist (increasingly likely a lot sooner than most of us realize), there will still be wonderful sea creatures who will remain alive. They are, in many ways, a lot smarter than we are.
@CalltoActivism Agree with Enzo 100%! We humans have so much to learn from the animal world.
@CalltoActivism Dolphins are soooooo intelligent and compassionate and kind! This true story demonstrates how much we owe animals for how this earth operates. Please share this story. And take care of all dolphins. I’ve read many stories about dolphins rescuing humans too.They deserve our love.
@CalltoActivism I love stories like this. Enzo is a hero. 💕
@CalltoActivism In my old location I was regularly cleaning up other people's littered fishing lines. Trash pails were maybe 70 feet away. Who raised these people? 🤬
@CalltoActivism Communication only happens when we pay close attention. Words don’t connect us unless we really listen with our hearts. Dolphins 🐬 🩵 I am so glad they’re still on the planet!
