Dolphins By Vanessa Melgar
Intro. Today I have researched a lot about dolphins. Sit back and let me tell you about this intelligent species.
Habitat First of all, let’s talk about a dolphins habitat. A dolphins usually lives in bays, lagoons, harbors, gulfs and “tributaries”. Dolphins migrate if the water gets too cold or if there is not enough food. All dolphins like different kinds of water depends what they like to live in: some dolphins might like close to land hot water and others might like deep cool water.
Adaptations Now let’s talk about adaptations. A dolphins brain only sleeps half at night, the other looks out for danger. Unexpectedly, a dolphin mostly hears from its lower jaw. Dolphins have a streamlined body that helps them swim faster.
Predator/Prey Let’s start talking about a dolphins food or the animal that eats it. A dolphin is a omnivore so he eats shrimp, fish, kelp and squid. A dolphin doesn’t chew they just swallow whole. A dolphin gets eaten by a Orcas or a Great White Shark but sometimes they can’t catch the dolphins because they’re too fast.
Appearance I’ve always wondered what dolphins looked like when I was younger, but now that I’ve researched on it let me tell you. Dolphins have a single blowhole on their head. Most dolphin’s not all but most dolphin’s have gray skin (some dolphins have blue or pink). A dolphin has a smooth rubbery body.
Life-Span This will be my last informational paragraph and I’ll spend it talking about a dolphins life span. Some dolphins live up to 50/48 or 25/20 years old! But some don’t, all dolphins are different.
This is mostly what I know about dolphins. Thank you for being patient and watching my slide show about these great dolphins.
