It began, the way most black holes do these days, with a social media post. Scrolling through my feed, a vacation photo grabbed my attention. It was one of my friends, smiling and standing in pristine blue water, facing a dolphin. They were holding both of its flippers, almost as if the two were dancing. Swiping through the rest of the images in the slideshow made it clear this was a captive animal in a swim-with-dolphins program.
