While pilot whales are biologically a dolphin species just like orcas, they are still normally referred to as whales, both because they are larger than other dolphin species and looks extremely different from the others. This hoax article calls them "dolphins" only to stir up emotions with saying that they are "playful" etc and "coming to the islands thinking they will play with the locals". This is not true, and pilot whales does not have such behavior, its not a "playful animal" that interacts with humans, and is more like a baleen whale than a dolphin in their behavior.
People who spread this hoax articles should be ashamed of themselves.
