Can anyone enlighten me? On one of my cruises along the Bosphorus I'm sure I saw a dolphin. The friends I was with didn't see it and they didn't say I couldn't have. Was this Turkish politeness or are there dolphins in that area?

I think the dolphin that you saw was the real one. Yes there are dolphins in that area. But our dolphins are a bit little

Dolphins are indeed beautiful creatures.

In the news this week a dead seal was found with a huge bite taken from it. Experts are saying it is the work of a huge shark! I didn't know such huge ones could be found arounf English shores.

Yes, just down the road from me! They took great delight (news readers) in telling everyone that if you were queamish look away - it was dinner time.

The expert on TV last night said that it was unlikely to be a great white which took a chunk out of the seal, which is what the media was saying.

Poor seal

While on the subject of Dolphins, my son saw some while sailing around the Turquoise coast in August, somewhere near Dalyan.

We get a lot of dolphins, seals and sharks here where I live

Northern CA shark attacks

I have seen many Leopard Sharks virtually in my back yard.

Sharks and Dolphins do not normally bother each other...Until American missionaries interfere...
