Is Dolphin edible, like in the book “The old man and the sea” ?

I was wondering, after reading “The old man and the sea”, how can Santiago, the old man from the Hemingway masterpiece, can hook and fish a Dolphin ?
Dolphin are huge marine mammals and are not supposed to be edible, right ? Or is there any Dolphin that are small are edible ?

I just want to clarify another person’s answer…Dolphin-as in porpoise-is a mammal. Like Flipper. But there is also a FISH called dolphin. It’s just a regular fish. Poeple eat it all the time, and it is usually referred to as mahi-mahi, as to avoid confusion. But it’s not the dolphin like you are thinking of. “The Old Man and the Sea” is aout fishing for marlin (swordfish), which is a fish, not a mammal, and is totally edible, although huge!
