Left unsaid in the article is that these bottlenose dolphins are most likely forming alliances to gang rape female bottlenose dolphins.
For consensual sex - leave your buddies at home.
For gang rape - alliance ‘social networks’ helps.
Flipper is a rapist!

It is well-known that male mallards pair up for mating. One holds the female down, while the other mates with her. (Frowned upon when humans use the same technique.....) Are dolphins using the same method?
