New hybrid whale-dolphin discovered in Hawaii

I personally believe that all of the recently found mixed and believed extent breeds are being created. Even a high school lab has gene splicing equipment now days. There have to be scientists capable of creating and also want to see their creation released into the wild.

Ah, the fabled Wolphin.

I'm not surprised, Dolphins are randy creatures and If the stories are true they are the only animal apart from humans that copulates for pleasure. But hey they were just chasing some 'tail'-yeah y'all have my permission to groan at that one.

It makes you think, we have Ligers and now Wolphins-if the planet is still habitable in ten million years, could the wolphin deviate from the standard model and create it's own genus? Who's to say that Orcas' and Narwhals can't do the same and create an Orwhal (as in George Orwell.)

I try to explain this to people all the time, usually after they get upset because I have just called dolphins bloody rapefish and said I'm glad that I get to eat them in canned "tuna".

So, if you're ever over at my house and someone asks you if you're in the mood for dolphin sammiches around lunch time... Don't worry it's just what we call canned tuna.

Clearly the result of to much puffer fish...

Yeah when I read it was a hybrid I was like, I bet the father is the dolphin lol

Hm. I wonder if they're sterile.

Apparently not.

At first it was believed wholphins may be infertile due to the unknown effects of hybridization between a false killer whale and a bottlenose dolphin, however when Kekaimalu (a female wholphin) gave birth to her first child while at a very young age she quickly disproved the myth of wholphins being infertile.
