I know it’s a fun story that dolphins pass pufferfish or something and the venom gets them “high” but I wonder if this is accurate. This seems like a cute urban legend more than genuine animal psychology. Or am I wrong? Is it scientifically verified somehow that dolphins have the cognitive ability to deliberately abuse drugs and get high socially?

once saw a squirrel get tipsy on fermented berries. If squirrels are having boozy brunches, I wouldn’t put it past dolphins to enjoy a little pufferfish cocktail!
