      The exact same thought crossed my mind when I read the title. I’m pretty sure this has been known for a while.

      Edit: just read the article. The Guiana dolphin was found to have this ability several years ago, now they’ve found evidence of it in bottlenose dolphins.

    Wait, aren’t EEG signals stronger than fish electromagnetic fields? Can the dolphins smell my thoughts? I’m going to need a tin foil swim cap.
