Dolphins do not molt in the same way that some animals, like reptiles or birds, shed their skin or feathers. Instead, they experience a gradual process of skin renewal, where the outer layer of skin is continuously shed and replaced. This process helps maintain their skin's health and functionality, particularly in terms of hydrodynamics and protection against parasites. However, it is not a seasonal or dramatic shedding like molting observed in other species.
