A child friendly briefing on dolphins from The Mini Page features a SeaWorld expert. It covers dolphins as toothed whales, their mammal classification, skin and hair, many species, ocean and river habitats, and breathing through a blowhole. The piece notes smiling appearance and teeth usage.
The article explains how dolphins use echolocation to locate food and objects by emitting high pitched clicks, with echoes traveling to a jawbone and ear. It notes dolphins can identify distance and type of prey, that spinner dolphins hunt at night, and each dolphin has a distinctive whistle for recognition. It also mentions early beliefs about language and confirms dolphins communicate via clicks, squeaks, grunts, and whistles, aiding cooperation and danger warning.
After a dolphin calf is born, the mother may whistle to it constantly for days to teach the calf its mother's special whistle. By one month old, the calf may begin developing its own whistle, signaling social bonding and early vocal signaling.
The article surveys dolphin behavior from SeaWorld San Diego to wild pods. It notes social life in pods of two to 15, teamwork in hunting, and occasional tool use with sea sponges. It mentions training for rewards and displays their lively, intelligent nature.
