Of all animals in the world, the dolphin is the focus of special attention this year. This idea will bring us humans closer together, too, because dolphins are a part of everyday life and culture in many countries. You will find them in stories, fairy tales and even on flags. Humans and dolphins used to have a very close and friendly relationship; which is illustrated in various myths and legends. However this is no longer the case in all parts of the world. In some countries, people hunt dolphins in the belief that dolphins eat so many fish that there are not enough left for the fishermen to catch. In other countries, dolphins are still honoured by the people of today as intelligent creatures which should be protected, and as friends of the human race.
