When i lived in FL a kid i knew got his arm bitten (similarly to that guys leg) by a tiger shark. My friends and i would perodically see sharks when we were surfing, but never really came too close (i got the **** out of the water though). Also, according to the "experts" they (sharks around FL) only tended to attack in the dusk/night hours, so...
Anyway, that's some scary ****. It is also strange because iirc don't dolphins also have an extremely violent side as well. (Marine Biology was a long time ago lol)

Dolphins are our friends, but definately not whales. I've read several stories of whales being killed by dolphin groups. Dolphins are just the bad asses of the sea I guess.

Great story.
It's amaizing that dolphins would risk their lives to help a different species.

Dolphins are vicious bastards but for some reason no one really knows they <3 humans. Maybe it's cuz they are the only other creature on the planet close to our intelligence (weird thought.. but yeah, dolphins could be the humans of the ocean in a few million years) and they want to get on our good side.
WHO KNOWS.
Dolphins kick ass.

Whats unusual about this attack is the article said it was a great white and it bit him 3 times. Great whites usually bite once and leave either to let the prey bleed to death or because they don't like the taste.

I don't really think it's risking their own lives. Im pretty sure sharks aren't predators to dolphins. (could be wrong)

yea dolphins have been warding off sharks for a long time. also sharks are great predators but their hunting style is not suited for taking out a large mobile creature like a dolphin, they tend to sneak up on most of their prey or scavenge on animals that are already injured or dead. sharks aren't all that bright either especially compared to the highly intelligent dolphin.

perhaps it has something to do with the surfer not being a perceived threat, whereas the shark is a definite threat in a dolphin's eyes...

Whether a shark is a natural predator of a dolphin or not, any creature that gets between a Great White shark and it's prey is endangering it's life.

Great whites prefer cooler temperate waters while dolphins stick to warmer areas, but recently in hawaii there are many reports of great whites from california going out to hawaii and attacking and killing large numbers of dolphins there. They dont cross paths much but when they do the sharks usually feed on them.

Yes they do. Many a time, my father has told me stories about when he was saved from a shark by a dolphin. I need to e-mail the link, I know it'll make his day.
