Genius Dolphins

Photo Credit: Ewa Krzyszczyk & Cosmos
We all know that dolphins are very intelligent. It has been discovered that some dolphins use sea sponges as tools.

Find out why these dolphins find the sea sponges handy in this article by Megan Garber at The Atlantic.

"Scientists now believe that more than 60 percent of all female dolphins in the area practice sponging."

We love our cetacean friends, and dolphin stories such as this one are always fun.

Read more about sponging at Cosmos Magazine, The Science of Everything.
