This is not entirely so. Any resort that has a 'play with the dolphins'
program strictly warns women who are pregnant or having their period
that they should not get in the water. The dolphins can smell blood
from the womb and can hear the heartbeat of a fetus, and are extremely
unreliable around such women. Sometimes they will crowd around a
pregnant woman to the exclusion of the other tourists, even harassing
tourists that get close to the woman, other times they will try to push
a woman out of the pool, apparently for fear that her blood will
attract sharks.
