Pleo goes to Sea World
There's been a lot written about how humans anthropomorphize Pleo - but even dolphins are fascinated! This is an amazing video. Sirensgrotto says that Pleo reacts positively to the dolphins, too.

That's pretty fascinating.
Pleo should be redesigned into a submersible swimming version which emits dolphin noises and interacts under water with the dolphins. It would be interesting to see if they wanted to eat Pleo, or wanted to know more about it and maybe play with it.
