Mosnews reports that a pod of Black Sea dolphins tried to drown a swimmer who they saw as competition for their food:
The man, reportedly heavily under the influence of alcohol at the time, was some 30 metres from land, near a wave breakwater, and calling for help.
The dolphins attempting to push the man out to sea, witnesses said.
The emergency workers brought the man back to dry land after approaching the breakwater via a pier, and striking the water repeatedly with clubs, so as to frighten away the dolphins.
I sense a new series of blockbuster movies on the horizon…

I’m sure they didn’t do it on porpoise.
(Sorry)

In America the dolphins push you to the beach and save you from sharks, in Russia they push you out to sea and feed you to them.
Yeah, that seems about par for the course.
