HOW DOLPHINS HUNT AND FEED - NAVY SCIENTISTS ATTACHED A CAMERA : IT WASN'T PRETTY

DAILY BEAST : FOOTAGE OF FISH BEING HUNTED AND EATEN BY DOLPHINS  by Mattie Bender

THEY ENJOY EVERY MINUTE OF EATING FISH...

"Squeals continued as the dolphin seized, manipulated and swallowed the prey.  If fish escaped, the dolphin continued the chase and sonar clicks were heard less often than the continuous terminal buzz and squeal. During captures, the dolphin's lips flared to reveal nearly all of the teeth. The throat expanded outward. Fish continued escape swimming even as they entered the dolphin's mouth, yet the dolphin appeared to such the fish right down."
