Introduction:
Dolphins are not fish they are mammals like us humans. Dolphins have lungs and have the same body temperature as me witch around 36 - 37 degrees Celsius. Dolphins don't have gills like fish they have to come to the surface of the ocean to breath air
description:
Dolphins have soft smooth skin like rubber. their tails move up and down not side to side like a fish
where do they live:
Dolphins live in the sea mostly in warm waters they can live in rivers and cold waters like new Zealand too
what do they eat :
they eat small bait fish and they catch the fish by working together to push the fish in to a bait ball they take turns to eat the fish
