Loyal Pelican Stands Guard Sweetly Shielding Pair of Dolphins on Beach

Title Loyal Pelican Stands Guard Sweetly Shielding Pair of Dolphins on Beach
Summary This pelican swam alongside two dolphins, seemingly acting as their bodyguard on the beach shore. Max Lapersonne was at the beach in Monkey Mia, Australia, when he noticed a pelican swimming next to where he was walking on August 24th. Initially, Max thought that there were two shadows under the pelican before realizing they were, in fact, dolphins. The pelican and two dolphins swam nearby Max for around 10 minutes before they swam away from Max altogether. Max said, “They never separated from each other (maybe they're best friends?).”
