… Before the bottlenose dolphin turned up, the beached pygmy sperm whales were in clear distress.

But when Moko arrived at Mahia beach on the east coast of New Zealand’s North Island, their mood changed and they followed him to safety.

why is the twit so particularly glum about the fate of humankind today? Horrific video evidence after the jump…
