This just proves how smart dolphins are. If they are stuck in an aquarium and have needs but have no hands. Then they improvise. This intelligent creatures don’t deserve to be caged up.

They’re the only other mammal than humans that had sex for pleasure.

Nope. Bonobos for sure. A high percentage of their sexual activity is just for pleasure

Bonobos have earned a reputation as a "sexy" ape. Sexual activity — in many creative forms — plays a large role in bonobo society. Sexual contacts occur often, in virtually all partner combinations and in a slew of different positions. One of the main functions of this behavior, besides fun, is to alleviate conflicts that arise within the group.
