Flipper Protects Chinese Ships from Pirates…

According to Chinese Media. I kid you not. I LOVE the way the Chinese media writes…

Thousands of dolphins blocked the suspected Somali pirate ships when they were trying to attack Chinese merchant ships passing the Gulf of Aden, the China Radio International reported on Monday.

The Chinese merchant ships escorted by a China’s fleet sailed on the Gulf of Aden when they met some suspected pirate ships. Thousands of dolphins suddenly leaped out of water between pirates and merchants when the pirate ships headed for the China’s.

The suspected pirates ships stopped and then turned away. The pirates could only lament their littleness before(sic) the vast number of dolphins. The spectacular scene continued for a while.

No word yet from Anne or Todd McCaffrey as to whether these were the Dolphins of Pern..
