Bottlenose Dolphins

Bottle-nose Dolphins are a common species of dolphin. They live in groups called pods. Their pods can have more than 1,000 members in them. They eat fish and they work together to harvest schools of fish but also hunt individually. These dolphin have sharp eyesight and are very intelligent. Dolphins are very aggressive to some animals. The males fight other males to get a mate. Sometimes dolphins fight each other for food. Sharks are very dangerous for this animal but it is very rare for a killer whale to prey on dolphins. In fact, sometimes the killer whales swim WITH bottle-nose dolphins.
