Don't Feed Wild Dolphins | Georgia Outdoors

Because dolphins are social creatures, they learn their behaviors from one another. One dangerous behavior dolphins sometimes learn is begging. Like dogs, dolphins will beg for food from humans. And while this may look cute, begging can be very dangerous to a dolphin's health.
