About

Smiling Dolphin refers to memes and jokes about a photo of a "Yangtze Finless Porpoise," a kind of endangered river dolphin found in the Yangtze River in China. A photo of the dolphin's head, where it appears to be smiling, became a reaction meme on X (formerly Twitter) in September 2024. The photo likely originates from the Miyajima Public Aquarium in Japan.

Origin

The image of the smiling dolphin, which is actually a "Yangtze Finless Porpoise" or "Neophocaena Asiaeorientalis" was first uploaded to the internet by ZooChat[1] user amur leopard, who added the image to an album titled, "Miyajima Public Aquarium," indicating that the image was likely taken there (seen below). The photo was uploaded to the internet on August 11th, 2023.
