May 1, 2009: Not A Shark

Don't give me no crap, this is not a shark, it's a Dolphin.
Granted it's a funny looking Dolphin called a Snubfin, but hey it's an Aussie Dolphin so that explains it. :haha:
And it's not only funny looking it also spits, more accurately it shoots water jets from it's mouth to round up fish.

A rare species of Australian dolphin has been found to catch its fish prey by spitting water, according to research by WWF. The small snubfin dolphins hunt in groups and use their spitting technique to round up fish they have chased to the surface by firing jets of water from their mouths.

The unusual behaviour has only been observed in one other dolphin species, the Irrawaddy dolphin, which lives throughout south and south-east Asia.


Unfortunately, we have to come up with recipes quickly for this one.

New research by WWF indicates that Australia's heavily populated coastline and rapidly expanding tourist developments near environmental wonders, such as the Great Barrier Reef, could see this species disappear before it is properly understood.


So fire up the bogan barbie, baby... let's get cookin'.

1. Marinade dolphin in a briny solution of effluent, untreated sewage, and agricultural run-off. For extra zing, add 17 shipping container of ammonium nitrate and 3,000 tonnes of diesel oil.
2. Tenderize dolphin, by repeatedly running over it with a speedboat. If you have an outboard propeller, this can also give you a head start in chopping.
3. Hack dolphin into slabs with a knife the size of your forearm. Wear a manly hat while doing this.
4. Throw large slabs of dolphin flesh onto the barbie.
5. Drink one beer.
6. Turn meat.
7. Drink another beer.
8. Remove from heat and serve.
It is often done to set aside the more easily recognizable parts of the animal, to serve to more sensitive guests. The laughter their reactions will generate can break the ice and make your barbecue a truly memorable one.

Hah! That dolphin's fin is stubby. Personally, my fin is huge, purple-headed, vein-laden, & blood-engorged.
Look at it, baby, just look at it! Oh, oh, don't run, don't you run!!!!

That pic of the eagle could go in Gravdigr's thread "Faces"

Ever since Audubon made his drawings, birds have emotional facial expressions.
