What will happen to the dolphins in New Jersey rivers?

Of course, the last option does not include a dolphin dying after it returns to the ocean.

How does this settle if "Human aid required to return one dolphin to the ocean?"

If all other dolphins return without human aid, it settles as 'Human aid required to return all dolphins to the ocean. If one or more dolphins die before reaching the ocean, the market settles as 'At least one dolphin dies.' Exact option depends on how the first dolphin dies.

@ onedave - my question is what is the option if one, or two, or three dolphins require aid to return to the ocean, but the others don't.

In that case, human aid wasn't required to return all dolphins to the ocean -- only some required human aid;
and, all dolphins didn't require aid to return to the ocean -- only 2 or 3 did (assume no deaths in this scenario).

Assuming no deaths, I only see options for all dolphins with human aid, and all dolphins without human aid -- not some dolphins with (or without) human aid.

At the moment, if it is reported that only some of the dolphins required human aid, then this question will have to be voided.

I don't think the choices cover enough of the possibilities to permit this question to remain open without an "Other" choice. Flagged, but not suspended.

I think we are getting picky on the wording. (Remember that we only have 50 characters for each option.)

My reasoning for giving the options was as follows: The last two options cannot interfere with the first two options. The first option seems pretty uncontroversial. For option two, if the last dolphin requires human aid to return to the ocean, they all return to the ocean and human aid is used to do it.

Everything I have read indicates that the dolphins are traveling as a family. Dolphins are like humans in many ways. Humans do not leave sick family members behind. It does not seem valid that there is a 1 percent or higher chance that the dolphins split unless there is a death.

I have flagged this market. The administrator may amend the suspend date/time if circumstances change.

I agree with onedave here. The issue here is do all the dolphins return to the ocean. If yes, did that require human aid or not. If not, then was at least one of the deaths caused by boat contact or not. I suppose you could say that we need an "Other" option in case one or more of the dolphins applies for asylum in the US, but seriously. I do not understand why some people are trying to make this question seem troublesome, when they have clearly not really spent the time to understand what onedave is asking. This question was fine, and should not have been voided.

I opened a discussion on get satisfaction related to this market. Its address is http://getsatisfaction.com/hubdub/topics/re_opening_voided_questions
