For many years  people believed that  the  cleverest animals  after  man  were  the  chimpanzees.  Now, however,  there  is  a  proof  that  dolphins  may be even cleverer  than  these big apes. Although a dolphin  lives  in  the  sea,  it  is  not  a  fish.  It  is  a mammal.  It  is  in  many  ways, therefore,  like  a human  being. 

Dolphins  have  a  simple  language. They  are  able  to  talk  to  one  another.  It  may  be possible for man to learn how to talk to dolphins. But, this will  not be easy because dolphins cannot hear the kind of sounds man can make.  If man wants to talk to dolphins, therefore, he will have  to make a third language which  both  he  and  the dolphins  can  understand. 

Dolphins  are  also  very friendly toward man. They often follow ships. There are many stories about dolphins guiding ships through difficult and dangerous waters.
