These Mexican Fish Orgies Are So Fkn Loud Dolphins Are Losing Their Hearing

Some days we just truly, truly love science you guys, and today is one hundred percent one of them as we’ve just learnt that some Mexican fish have orgies so intensely loud it straight up deafens other sea animals.

The fish fuck noises are so thunderous, it can permanently hurt the ears of seals, sea lions and dolphins. Truly spectacular news here folks.

The horny fishies in question are called Gulf Corvina fish and in an attempt to deter overfishing of their breeding habitat, scientists are getting the word out about their uniquely clamorous boning process.

Gathering every spring in the northern part of the Gulf of California, the millions of Corvina fish, all emitting a mating call that sound like “a really loud machine gun”, results in a sex cacophony that resembles “a crowd cheering at a stadium or perhaps a really loud beehive.”

Co-author of the study into fish boinking, Timothy Rowell from the University of San Diego, says they’ve discovered nearby predatorial mammals such as dolphins with “temporary if not permanent hearing loss” due to the root-rat Corvinas.

Even though that’s kinda shitty for those dolphins and seals and whatnot, Rowell reckons they can go and get fucked, as the orgy event needs to be protected:

These spawning events are among the loudest wildlife events found on planet Earth [and] the loudest sound ever recorded for a fish species. A precautionary approach should be adopted by fisheries managers to ensure that this wildlife spectacle does not disappear.

GOOD FOR YOU CORVINA FISH. Keep on getting that fish D. We’re all so proud of you.
