Surprise dolphin hitches a ride in New Zealand fishermen’s boat
A fishing trip in New Zealand turned chaotic when a 400kg dolphin unexpectedly landed in a small boat, causing damage and minor injuries. The incident occurred near the Hole in the Rock, a popular spot off the North Island coast, as the men were fishing and dolphins were playing nearby.
The dolphin's sudden jump into the boat resulted in broken fishing rods and damage to the bow. While one man sustained minor injuries, both the fishermen and the dolphin were otherwise unharmed. The event, described as "berserk" by the boat owner, highlights the unpredictable nature of wildlife encounters at sea.
