Gross. But I'm all in favor of it. I think it would be a good thing to
reduce the persistent, popular misconception that human beings are
something special. Especially that myth that says we are more intelligent
than dolphins, et. al.  I don't see dolphins killing each other off,
reproducing like rabbits, and destroying their environment to an extent
that makes the survival of their species (and others) questionable.
Dolphins just *seem* nicer too. Ever hear of Hatterous (sp?) Jack?
The Albino Dolphin that guided ships safely to port.
