The easiest intubation of all mammals.[1] You don't need any tools, only an endotracheal tube (ETT). The ease even beats out all whale intubations, due to the large ETT. The weight of the whale's ETT can be so heavy that it can take up to 40 men to lift! Then you have the problem of ventilating this colossal beast. These logistics place whales at the other end of the intubation spectrum. Dolphins are easy, be glad you were called to a dolphin's STAT intubation.
