The most popular dolphin is the 'bottle-nose dolphin.' Dolphins have a thick layer of fat under their skin, this layer of fat is called blubber. The dolphins do not have fur, they need the fat to keep warm. Bottle-nose dolphins are the ones we've seen on TV shows, movies and shows.
Dolphins can swim 5 to 12 kilometers per hour.
Dolphins can make a unique signature whistle that may help individual dolphins recognize each other, collaborate, and lead to several other types of communication. Bottle-nose dolphins eat several kinds of fish like mullet, mackerel, herring, cod and squid. The maximum age for bottle-nose dolphins is between 40 and 50 yrs. There families are usually led by a female dolphin. The dolphins in a family help each other, like when they are raising their young.
