Dolphins are very clever and have an IQ second only to humans. They are one of the few creatures with a braining index close to that of humans. However, the developed brain also makes dolphins an emotionally developed species, which makes dolphins have a lot of interest, like to play around, and also evolved a strong interest in sex.
For most organisms, the main task in life is to survive and reproduce, without anyone telling them. By instinct or the brain's dopamine compensation mechanism, organisms can naturally learn to mate. Humans have raised a lot of cats and dogs. Many cats and dogs do not come into contact with the same kind during their growth period, let alone see the reproduction behavior of the same kind. However, cats and dogs will naturally trigger corresponding behaviors during the estrus period.
The reason is that hormones cause animals to produce physiological reactions. If female cats and dogs do not have corresponding activities, they will be very uncomfortable, and males will have corresponding physiological reactions when they are stimulated. Male cats and dogs are still very affectionate. They will accept all kinds of competition and mate with as many females as possible, and here is the influence of the dopamine compensation mechanism.
For animals with developed brains, emotions are generally very developed, and certain emotions are addictive to higher animals. Some humans are addicted to pain, and some are addicted to reproductive activities. Here is the role of the dopamine compensation mechanism. In a certain behavior, if the organism obtains positive and beneficial emotional feedback, the secretion of dopamine in the brain will increase, and then the animal will become addicted to this activity.
This phenomenon is also very important in the survival of living things. There are some human beings who are talented and can eat mud and gnaw glass, but in many cases it is due to the lack of certain nutrients and the brain promotes People try more kinds of foods, and if they get the corresponding nutrients in certain things, the dopamine compensation mechanism will prompt people to eat more of the corresponding things.
High IQ animals such as chimpanzees, bonobos, and dolphins have this tendency. Reproductive activities have been preserved as a way to communicate with different groups and promote group communication, but they also encourage animals to pursue this aspect of enjoyment. The reproductive activities of dolphins are very diverse.And there are a lot of cruel behaviors.
Animals with developed brains usually have developed external sensory organs, because sensations need to collect information from their peripherals and send them to the brain to produce corresponding sensations, which helps organisms seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Whether it is humans, chimpanzees or dolphins, the sensory organs on the reproductive organs are also very developed. Based on this physiological structure, such animals are more likely to get corresponding positive feedback, and the dopamine compensation system can make organisms addictive. The behavior of dolphins in reproduction is quite abnormal.
Male dolphins are not specific. In order to pass on more of their genes, male dolphins tend to seek more female mates during the breeding period. Frequent mating results are more conducive to passing on their genes. But this also causes dolphins to lack knowledge of their offspring. Only females with cubs give birth to their own children. Even if male dolphins mate with females, their offspring may not be their own.
Dolphins have many compulsive behaviors. Scientists have found that some female dolphins have frequent scars. Some scientists believe that dolphins have a lot of compulsive behaviors. Males surround the females in groups and force the females to accept themselves. If they do not accept, the males prohibit the females from eating. The female yields;
Dolphins have infanticide . Among cetaceans, infanticide is more common, and killer whales and dolphins all have such behaviors. Scientists speculate that the cause of infanticide is that female dolphins take their cubs for a long time, and the females have no desire to reproduce during the cubs. However, after the males kill the cubs, the environment and hormones will make the trip to the next step faster. The reproduction cycle of the wheel. In this way, males have relatively more opportunities to mate and are more conducive to passing on their genes.
Dolphin will practice beforehand.There will be some indescribable behaviors between male dolphins. The males gather to stimulate each other, and the dolphins will bite off the fish's head to make a special ease. Some scientists believe that this is because dolphins adapt to training in advance to meet the needs of reproduction in order to welcome the arrival of the breeding period.
Dolphins are not only interested in the same kind . Some dolphins often act together with small whales and occasionally attract each other. In this case, it is not for reproduction. In the natural environment, humans occasionally tracked individuals that seem to be hybrids of dolphins and whales; and it is said that there have been dolphins. Get along with the breeder day and night, and show a special affection for the breeder.
Many behaviors of dolphins are naked crimes in the human world, and they will be punished in the human world. However, it is a common or normal phenomenon in the population of dolphins that have begun to develop their wisdom and have not yet formed a moral Chinese New Year. Historically, because dolphins have developed IQ and were trained as spy animals, some countries have used them to deliver bombs or intelligence, but fortunately, the IQ of dolphins is not particularly high, and the knowledge taught to them by humans cannot be passed on to their peers.
