Dolphins act in concert to protect their young from
sharks. One or two dolphins will swim out to attract the
shark's attention. When the shark turns to follow this decoy,
other dolphins attack strongly from other directions;
one advances swiftly from behind the others
striking the shark's side with their noses.
Typically the shark gives up, but dolphins
have sometimes
even killed sharks
in this way. 32
