On January 11th, a bottlenose dolphin off the coast of Hawaii tangled in fishing line desperately sought out the assistance of a diver for help. The dolphin waited patiently while diver Keller Laros worked for about eight minutes to free the trapped animal.

Mr Laros was leading a group of snorkelers for a manta ray dive experience off the Big Island’s Kona International Airport when the dolphin squealed out.

The diver explained, ‘The way he came right up and pushed himself into me there was no question this dolphin was there for help.’
