As so often happens, reality is not that far from The Onion.

A South American river dolphin uses branches, weeds and lumps of clay to woo the opposite sex and frighten off rivals, scientists have discovered.

Researchers observed adult male botos carrying these objects while surrounded by females, and thrashing them on the water surface aggressively.

Writing in the journal Biology Letters, they say such behaviour has never before been seen in any marine mammal.

Large birds, like cranes, are known to use bait to catch fish. They’ll set a piece of bread afloat and watch it drift past. If nothing comes up to nibble, they’ll pick it up and put it back upstream again.
