There's Not One But TWO Dolphins In The East River

    No really. Dolphins. That are alive.

    New York City isn't known for its wildlife, and for good reason. The waterways are polluted and most of the ground is covered by buildings or concrete. The average New Yorker can go months without seeing any wildlife other than pigeons or squirrels or subway rats. Oh, and cockroaches.

    Which is why it's pretty darn strange that there have been two dolphins spotted in the East River this week. Is this some kind of cruel joke? Are these some super-evolved mutant creatures invading and ready to take over the city? Or are these dolphins just tragically confused?

    Or maybe they've just been celebrating St. Patrick's Day a little too hard.

    Go home, dolphins. You're drunk.

    Y'know, just a dolphin going for a casual swim IN THE EAST RIVER.

    Nothing to see here, folks. Nope.

    And here's a lady in a canoe just hanging out with the dolphin. Because... why not?

    ST. PATTY'S HAT AND ALCOHOL BOTTLES?! Dolphin, just go home.
