Enzo And The Dolphin

The famous Italian diver Enzo Mallorca was diving in the sea near Syracuse with his daughter Rossana, who accompanied him on the boat.

As he descended, he felt something lightly hit him on the back. He turned and saw a dolphin, then realized that it did not want to play, but was trying to tell him something.

The animal dived and so Enzo followed.

At a depth of about 12 feet, there was another dolphin caught in an abandoned fishing net, so Mallorca quickly asked his daughter to give him a diving knife.

In a few minutes, they managed to free the dolphin, which, with the last of its strength, let out an “almost human cry” (as Mallorca later put it.)

A dolphin can survive underwater for up to 10 minutes, and then it sinks.

The freed,  but still dazed dolphin, along with Enzo, Rossana, and another dolphin were brought to the surface. And then they realized it was a dolphin, who soon gave birth to another dolphin.

The dolphin father made a circle, swam up to Enzo, touched his cheek (like a kiss) – a gesture of gratitude… and swam away.

After everything was over, Enzo said: “Until a person learns to respect nature and talk to the animal world, he will never know his true role on Earth.”
