Most dolphins live in salt water. Only a few in comparison live in fresh water. Most of the fresh water dolphin live in the Amazon basin. China had some. They may still have some but many people think they are extinct. A few other rivers have some. A large number live in the oceans.

Most Dolphin species live in salt water but there are species that live in rivers such as the Amazon river. Marine Dolphin are also know to travel up estuaries on occasion..
