I remember when Austin Powers used to say, "with frickin laser beams on their heads". I think he was talking about sharks though? It looks as if the military is trying to transform a peaceful life form in to a killing machine.
Armed and dangerous - Flipper the firing dolphin let loose by Katrina
quote:
It may be the oddest tale to emerge from the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Armed dolphins, trained by the US military to shoot terrorists and pinpoint spies underwater, may be missing in the Gulf of Mexico.
Experts who have studied the US navy's cetacean training exercises claim the 36 mammals could be carrying 'toxic dart' guns. Divers and surfers risk attack, they claim, from a species considered to be among the planet's smartest. The US navy admits it has been training dolphins for military purposes, but has refused to confirm that any are missing.
