Best Answer

In any man-dophin encounter, the chance of a dolphin killing a man (by any conceivable chain of events) is non-zero. Given enough encounters, somebody's gonna die.

Mathematically speaking, a dolphin will kill a man.

On a less facetious note, a captive male dolphin reportedly attacked and killed a man... male dolphins prefer to be handled by female humans.

In actual fact, a dolphin will kill a man.

Technically anything is possible so yes, but this really has never happened, and there have actually been cases of dolphins defending humans in danger in the water.

Why are Ganges river dolphin endangered?

This dolphin is also know as the Pink Dolphin, Amazon River Dolphin and "Bufeo" in Peru. There are many reason this animals is suffering this threat. The main thing is man, and the development that has been brought to the area of the Pink Dolphin's habitat. At one time the native people of the area respected and didn't kill the Pink Dolphin, but with industry and development of the area, new ideas about the environment have been practiced for years now. The Pink Dolphin lost it's reverred status and was hunted for it's skin and fat. Now, it is mainly the gill nets that are killing many dolphins. They have no natural predators, but man. The commerical fishing gear and techinques, such as trawling, gill nets and fishing lines, kill unknown numbers, making conservation efforts truly difficult.
