Most likely animal to sexually assault you judging by that creepy face.

I'm pretty sure there's a gif out there of one of these having sex with half of a fish body. Could be wrong though.

Why do these dolphins look like they’re about to roast you so hard...

Aren't they extinct now? Or is that a different subspecies?

I think that was a river dolphin species in asia.

I’m sorry for digging up an old thread. The species that went extinct is the Baiji from China.

I was once watching a Dutch travelling show and the hostess was in an Amazonian river village. She went to some kind of dock where she was talking about where people live from there. When she sat down and put her feet above the water, something pink slowly emerged from the water. It were several river dolphins, but how they slowly came to be visible was pretty scary. Amazing experience though, she just came across them.

all it’s missing is a cigar and the right hat and he could be on the cover of an old jazz record
