Dolphins grab the imaginations of many people.
They are intelligent, playful, and friendly, and are reputed to have extra-sensory abilities and spiritual qualities. They help certain fishermen by herding fish into nets, and have rescued humans from dangerous situations at sea. They are ambassadors of the ocean, and lots of people want to meet them. Recently, human-dolphin interaction experiences have become popular. SeaWorld of San Diego inaugurated a program just this year.
