This is the moment a pod of dolphins "launch fish into orbit" in a new hunting technique seen off Florida's coast.<br /><br />The clip, filmed in May, shows the moment a dolphin whips a fish into the air with its tail and zips through the water to catch it. <br /><br />The kick by the dolphin normally stuns the fish and injures it which makes it easy to hunt.<br /><br />Canoeist Michael, who filmed this video, told Newsflare: “The dolphin is using the schooling nature of fish against them as the dolphins swim through a school of fish, the divided group is eager to reform. <br /><br />"When a fish in the school gets to close to the dolphin's tail as it swims around the dolphin to rejoin the group, it gets kicked. <br /><br />“This hunting technique is fairly common, but people only see it from ground level so all they see is a dolphin, and a fish soaring high into the air. The aerial views in this video show exactly what is happening,” the filmed continued.
