Dolphins and Porpoises

• A natural pond - NO

• Dolphins are a salt water creature and could live in a saltwater pond, but only if the pond had everything that aquarium tanks that house dolphins have. This includes tank size and water circulation, filtration, changing (removal and replacing water), temperature,... that a tank support system has. As this doesn't happen in nature such a pond would be a man made tank that looks like a pond.

They are killing thousands of animals!

Yes there is a dolphin in the Med,

• HUMPBACK WHALE FACTS
• Average Length: (Adult) 35-50 ft (Newborn) 13-16 ft
• Average Weight: (Adult) 23-30 tons (Birth) 1-2 tons
• Population: 18,000-20,000 (2002 figure)
• Lifespan: estimated to be around 40 years (1998 figure)
• Threats: Caught in fishing nets, human disturbance, and being tangled in marine pollution
• The flukes (tails) have a distinct pattern on the underside, much like our fingerprints
• The humpback whale breaches more frequently than other baleen whales
• The Pacific humpback's pectoral fins are white underneath & black on top..
• The Atlantic humpback's pectoral fins are white on both sides- which makes it easier for us to see them
• While in their breeding grounds- the whales do NOT eat!
• Some humpbacks feed in the Southern Ocean and go north to their reproductive areas!
• Can stay underwater for 30 minutes but often dives for much shorter periods of time, usually 5 to 10 minutes
• Humpbacks emit high frequency "clicks" reaching 30,000 Hz
• The males produce, in frequencies between 20 and 9,000 Hz, songs that are the longest and the most varied in all the animal kingdom, with repeated sequences about 15 minutes long
• When they are in cold waters, the humpback whale eats 2 tons of fish and planktonic crustaceans a day, in 2 to 4 meals

Just like any other animal you cannot set a date for dolphins to become extinct.

it means to move from somewhere other than where you are and i think its with a group it means to move from different places. example:birds migrate from the north to the south in the winter Migrate means for someone or somthing to move around a place.;-)

The most interesting fact about dolphins is that they are domestic animals as they are considered a person's friend in the sea which is similar to an example of a dog which is also a person's friend on the land. When a shark tries to attack a dolphin, the dolphin uses its snout to hit the sharks gills. The gills are the most painful part to get hit for a shark.

Flipper.

A Dolphins habitat can be down in reefs or deep down in the sea of Australia and America some can be seen in the Irish seas two!!!!

The dolphin is a mammal, and all mammals belong to the taxonomic domain of Eukarya.Eukarya covers all organisms in the Kingdom Animalia, as well as the Kingdoms Plantae, Fungi and Protista.

A dolphin has body fat equaling 18-20 percent of total body weight. This fat is deposited into a thick layer called blubber, which is used to provide insulation to dolphins and helps in conserving body heat.

The Pink River Dolphin has no "Natural" enemies, like sharks, etc. It's only enemy is Man and man's pollution and destruction of it's environment. Yes it is, but the only reason for is because they pollute their oceans and like to fish for them to kill them. They should let Amazon River Dolphins be and that's the way I feel about it

the pink river dolphin does have natural enimies it is the shark the way i know is that i am making a report on that animal

Pink dolphins migrate from the Amazon and Orinoco rivers to other places in South America to find food. When the water lowers in these areas, the migrate back and forth to find the highest water levels, which contain the largest amounts of food.

The entire population of Hector's dolphins is estimated to be about 7200.

The king of fish is called Koi in my opinion

The bow is the front end of the ship, with the stern being the back end.

By sending out sound

The dorsal fin of a dolphin is usefu,l because it can control the balance when a dolphin is swimming.It can also be useful for signs of dolphins and not sharks because the dorsal fin of a dolphin and a shark is slightly different.

It really depends on the mood. if the dog is a good mood it is easy to train same with a dolphin but even so most dolphins don't like to be trained so there fore a dog MAY be easier

they are both mammals
