Best Answer

For different habitats there are different diets.

Finless Porpoises are reported to eat fish and shrimp in the Yangtze River, and fish, shrimp and squid in the Yellow Sea/Bohai area and off Pakistan. In Japanese waters they are known to eat fish, shrimp, squid, cuttle fish and octopuses. Finless Porpoises are opportunistic feeders utilising various kinds of available food items available in their habitat. Seasonal changes in their diets have not been studied. They also apparently ingest some plant material when living in estuaries, mangroves, and rivers including leaves, rice, and eggs deposited on vegetation.

That is the finless porpoise. Pretty isn't it? hi they eat you to
Porpoises mostly feed on fish. They also eat squid, mollusks, crustaceans, shrimp, cuttle fish, and soft finned fish. They eat non-spiny fish, sardines, herring, cod, and shellfish.
