Randy sex pest dolphin Suzu terrorising swimmers & biting their fingers off as he tries to ROMP with any human in sight
THIS is Suzu – the sex pest dolphin that chases and terrorises beachgoers in an attempt to romp them.
Swimmers and divers in central Japan have been bitten, pushed and sexually harassed by the randy creature that looks to play – and make love.
Beaches are desperately warning holidaymakers about the dolphin who pops up out of nowhere and sources his victims as they swim.
Suzu the bottlenose has caused various injuries from attempting to force close encounters with humans.
Last week alone the sex pest was responsible for two attacks that resulted in one man horrifically losing his finger tip.
Signs have been put up along the coast warning tourists to escape the water if they see a dolphin – or more specifically, Suzu in the Fukui prefecture, north east of Kyoto.
Meanwhile jet skis patrol the busy beaches on a lookout for the sex-crazed creature.
Sonic devices which emit an uncomfortable underwater sound have even been pulled out and used if he approaches the coastline.
Suzu’s sex pest work has blown experts away as he alone was responsible for at least 21 attacks in 2022, nine last year and a whopping 18 this summer.
Yasuyuki Nakase, 62, is a diving instructor who has been a victim of Suzu’s sex pest behaviour several times.
Footage of Suzu shows him following the diver and aggressively pushing him with his nose before trying to bite his arm multiple times.
Yasuyuki told The Times: “When he tried to bite, I kept my arms straight, so he couldn’t get a grip.
“He was following me, opening and shutting his mouth by my face. It was scary.
“He kept pushing my bottom. It was very uncomfortable.”
Due to Suzu’s physical state of arousal, it’s clear to biologists that this is typical dolphin mating behaviour.
This leads biologists to question what could have triggered such irrational dolphin behaviour from Suzu.
One heartbreaking reason could be that the sex-crazed creature is lonely.
Dolphins tend to swim in groups, or pods, whereas Suzu is a solo traveller.
But this does not take away the sheer fear that he imposes on innocent holidaymakers.
Yasuyuki continued: “If he came at you with force, he could break your arm.
“Divers sometimes see dolphins, of course, and usually keep their distance.
“This one is totally different.”
Another reason for Suzu’s randy tenancies could be an overexposure to humans, cetologist Professor Tadamichi Morisaka argues.
Divers have often swam with Suzu and now he seeks playtime with humans – but plays too rough.
Despite Suzu physically looking sexually aroused, this does not always mean he is attempting to mate but could just show he is looking to play.
The cetologist explained to The Times: “People touched the dolphin and hugged it.
“It gradually got used to them and now it approaches people. Dolphins nip one another as part of play but when they do that to humans it becomes a problem.”
Due to the extensive list of attacks Suzu has carried out, if he were a shark, it’s fairly probable he would have been killed by now.
But killing dolphins is banned by municipal ordnance in the Fukui prefecture – where Suzu lives.
While he is terrorising the Japanese coast, diving instructor Yasuyuki argues Suku shouldn’t be held accountable for his actions as “it’s not [Suzu] that’s doing the wrong.”
He explained: “It’s the human beings who came into his world. He’s too used to men. Perhaps he’s been ostracised by his own kind.”
While Yasuyuki says “there’s nothing we can do” now about the randy dolphin, the coastline should look to “avoid creating a second or a third Suzu” in the future.
