About the spinner dolphin

Answer 1

Spinner dolphins are quite amazing. They are different from other dolphins because instead of just jumping out of the water, they spin. They can do up to 14 spins in one jump! They got their name because of that.

Spinner Dolphins usually eat small fish and squid. They eat in the night because usually their prey is deep underwater. As the day passes by, its food floats up near the surface. Spinners attack in groups so they can surround their prey and then attack. Predators of spinner dolphins are sharks and whales.

Spinner dolphins use echolocation to see in the dark. They use echolocation because they spend most of their time in dark places. They hear by feeling vibrations.

Spinner Dolphins can dive up to 3,000 feet down! Even though spinners have learned to stay away from fishing nets, they are disappearing year by year, month by month, and day by day.
