Magnificent!!! Not only a heartwarming inspirational story, but also the RARE acknowledgement of animal intelligence far greater than people would like to believe, for their own comfort and convenience.

In watching this diver’s video on YT . . . Hiroyuki Arakada (the diver) brought the fish (a female) name Yoriko (she’s called a korbudai in Japan) the diver brought her 5 crabs a day when he noticed that she was injured and couldn’t catch her own food. That was about 30 years ago when Hiroyuki met Yoriko and they’ve been friends ever since!

I love hearing of animals finally being acknowledged for their intelligence and warmth. I do believe animals can feel so much more than they are given credit for, which is why my heart hurts and breaks when I hear of callous or cruel treatment of Gods greatest gift, the animals and creatures of nature.

JJ, If I could edit the info, I'd delete the word "which" and put "and" instead. Anyone know if they are looking for an editor?

hairslinger for God, Lovely thought, but when I once asked a hunter how he could shoot a beautiful elk, his answer: "because God made us superior" Gee, such a simple explanation to a complicated and brutal sport.

This nearly brought a tear to my eye. What a special story and beautiful example of how animals understand and feel many more complex things than we realize.

It is true that some fish can recognize people... I had an Oscar that could recognise my face when I came up close to the tank... He would even take food from my hand.... 🐟
