Interesting photo. Copyrighted, too, I see. Was that used with prior
permission?

I was actually giving rw points for leaving the copyright info intact. Most
versions I've seen have that cropped or edited off, including the photo on
the Urban Legends reference page (http://www.snopes.com/photos/surfer.asp).

Consensus seems to be it was a bottlenose dolphin, though the logic on the
UL page is a bit short of conclusive.
