An Amazonian river dolphin appeared in front of a resident’s house after a village in Ilanduba, Brazil, was recently hit by severe flooding, the British newspaper The Independent reported on May 30.

The video was reportedly taken in a village in Ilanduba, Brazil, which was hit by flooding after the nearby Rio Negro River broke its banks. The video shows the resident feeding the puffer fish some food and petting it several times.

A friend of the family posted the video on social media and said such interactions are common in the area.
