Interview #282: Robert Jordan’s Blog: NO CHAMPAGNE YET, Entry #3

Robert Jordan

For Teri, the dolphin I wrote about is a fish, not a mammal. In Latin America it is called dorado, while in Hawaii (and in restaurants) it’s called mahi-mahi. Just so nobody will think they’re serving Flipper. Terribly wasteful creatures, dolphins. The mammals, I mean. Many times I’ve seen a dolphin herd redfish or sea trout into shallow water, then, with a swoop of the tail, send the lot of them up onto a mud flat. The dolphin will then semi-beach itself, eat what it wants, and swim off leaving the rest of the fish, the majority of them, lying on the mud. Intelligent? Maybe. But not ecologically minded. Not at all.
