In case you didn’t know, the U.S. Navy has militarized sea mammals that help identify undersea mines, defend against enemy swimmers, and protect about a quarter of the U.S. nuclear stockpile. Recently, a team of researchers equipped some of the Navy’s dolphins with cameras and captured some remarkable footage of the cetaceans hunting and feeding.

The dolphins are part of the Navy and are allowed to do open-water swimming. The recent project witnessed six bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) catching over 200 fishes and sea snakes in a seawater pool and in San Diego Bay off the coast of California. The team’s research detailing the dolphin’s hunting and eating methods is published in PLOS One.
