Prabhupada, October 9, 1975, Durban: […] Mind is working of the fish, he knows where is his enemy, where to go. They have got better mind. They can understand from two miles that some enemy is coming. They take care.
Devotee: Fish?
Prabhupada: Yes. The mind is so strong. Every fish in the water, although they are expert, they are always in danger. They are always afraid of being eaten by bigger fish. Nunam mahatam tatra. The world is that the stronger is exploiting the weaker. Nunam mahatam tatra jivo jivasya jivanam. Still, they are expert.

Dolphins’ ‘Sixth Sense’ Helps Them Feel Electric Fields
Posted on July 30, 2011, CEH — Dolphins and toothed whales are among the mammals with the sixth sense of echolocation, but now a seventh sense has been found in at least one species. New Scientist reported that Guiana dolphins can sense electrical fields of their prey.
This species needs to forage in the murky coastal waters of its habitat and find prey at close range, where echolocation is less effective.
Experiments by German scientists show that the sense organs are in pits corresponding to the whiskers of land mammals. Live Science put it, “Through evolution, the dolphins have lost their whiskers, but kept the pores.” Prime researcher Wolf Hanke from the University of Rostock also ascribed the ability to evolution.
Believing that electrical sensing also evolved in the duck-billed platypus and echidna, he reasoned that “it is relatively easy to evolve, to change mechanoreceptor organs into electroreceptors.” That opinion was not supported by any empirical evidence mentioned in the article.
The two main papers barely mentioned evolution, but the scientists and reporters who did committed the common fallacy among evolutionists of saying these animals “evolved” this or “developed” that, as if they held a committee and said, “Fellow bats, we would have better luck hunting if we would just invent the ability to echolocate.”
This is the folly of personification, and it misrepresents neo-Darwinism, the intent of which was to eliminate teleology from science. A bat or dolphin can no more “evolve” echolocation or electrical sensing than a rock can decide to evolve an office building.

Dolphins are not a ordinary living entities they were yogi in previous lives.

Before we could see the dolphins at Ganga and Yamuna in New Delhi, now we can see only tortoise everywhere to clean the rivers from corpses.
Dolphins gone far away from the contamination of kali-yuga’s holy rivers – with the help of their echolocation and electroreception.
