NOAA: Don’t Feed Wild Dolphins
NOAA is asking everybody to please stop feeding wild dolphins because they are known to bite people and there’s always the chance they will become dependent on humans to feed them – meaning when we’re not around, the dolphins could starve to death.

The PSA reminds viewers that feeding wild dolphins is not only illegal, it is harmful to dolphins, even causing some to rely on begging for food from humans, upsetting their natural role as hunters and altering their diets.
