Why is bottle nose dolphin females and children more vulnrable to prediters than male dolphins?

Often a female dolphin is smaller and does not have as much strength as a male dolphin. Baby dolphins (known as calves) cannot protect themselves just like a human baby cannot protect itself. A mother with a calf would want to protect its calf if in danger and thus will put its own life in danger as well.
