How old was the oldest Amazon dolphin?

Answer 1

The oldest dolphin in the world is now 57! Her name is Nellie and resides in Marine land Florida, just south of St. Augustine. I had the pleasure of seeing her last week. Her dorsal fin is noticeably limp and tilts to the side. She also has cataracts.

Answer 2

The Amazon River dolphins or botos are born grey and become pinker with age they have a long powerful beak, small eyes and are slow swimmers. When excited, they will flush to a bright pink temporarily. They are unique among dolphins for having molar-like teeth and can chew their prey. Also uniqueness is they have small hairs on their rostrum which remain throughout their life. Another interesting habit is they rest on the bottom of the river. They are quite solitary animals, and are found in the main rivers of the amazon and Orinoco river systems of Tropical South America. They inhabit muddy stagnant water, and during flooding will move onto the flooded forests leaving them at risk of stranding. They are however extremely flexible so they can weave through the obstacles of trees as they search for their prey. They are a completely Freshwater species, never venturing into salt water. Their habitat is threatened by pollution, Damming, boat traffic, and by man through directly killing them for food or sport or destruction of their habitat.
