海豚也会利用工具捕鱼

[p=30, 2, left]我们都知道海豚是聪明的动物,近日Murdoch 大学的研究人员发现:海豚还会利用海螺来捕鱼。不仅如此,它们还会交流传播这种方法,现在利用海螺捕鱼的方法,正在澳大利亚西部的海豚族群中传播。[/p][p=30, 2, left][color=#2854BB]研究人员说[/color],第一次发现海豚有这种行为是在2007年,当时他们发现一些海豚会叼着一个海螺在水里游玩。才开始研究人员以为只是一种玩具,后来发现它是一种捕鱼工具。[/p][p=30, 2, left]海豚会将海螺放在水下,一些小鱼便将此作为庇护所钻进去躲起来,接着海豚便叼起海螺,就好似渔夫收网一样,收获一海螺的小鱼。[/p][/color]
