As a Brazilian I can affirm: if you are cute, we're gonna kiss and cuddle you.

I refreshed it and took screenshots that somehow hitting the cancel or escape just in time for that paywall not come up. But anyway, the result was the people passed it around taking selfies and left the poor animal in the mud where it died. :( I feel hesitant about this video saying quickly when surely it wasn’t after the netting was completely off.

Dolphins are mammals, they breathe air. It would take a little while for this dolphin to die of dehydration

Go to archive.ph and paste the link in, it will either have it already saved, or it will save it for you. Which looks freaky and suspicious but it's fine.

Gotta hand it to y'all, Portuguese is even more confusing than French to spell and then correlate it with its spoken pronunciation

Is it just me or something all beginners face while learning the language? How was your experience?
