A group of dolphins off the coast of Western Australia have found a way to outsmart fishermen by stealing bait using a genius trick. In never-filmed-before footage, the Koombana Bay dolphins are spotted tipping over and raiding crab bait boxes.
The dolphins’ intriguing behavior has been documented by researchers who set up underwater cameras. Dolphin Discovery Center, an environmental, community-based nonprofit, was alerted to this intriguing behavior in early 2022 by local wildlife conservationist and keen crab fisherman Rodney Peterson.
