Well, I still think this story is worth studying and understanding, even if it was in captivity...may be even BECAUSE it was in captivity!
---from p.259 of book-----
We usually go through this three times or so before he quits and starts another game. This is not a private thing. Peter and I have done this with other people present . . . but it is a very precious sort of thing, Peter is completely involved, and I involve myself to the extent of putting as much love into the tone, touch, and mood as possible. We do not have to
respect his privacy . . . but we cannot help but respect his happinessl
---end of quotation----
It seems many humans (too many! to the point I obviously can't trust myself when I repeat in Nth time 'I love dolphins..') just use possibility of such love as excuse for being ..too much about one-way 'game', when humans get more and more, and non-humans - less and less ...This is kind of nearly universal bias I want to avoid, but ..I'm human. Just like all other humans my self-view can easily become too deformed, and I will rationalize this problem away :/

I always knew there was some reason I was drawn to that game...
Oh yeah, the all time classic. It's cool to see it show up again, though!
