    Default Bottlenose Dolphin

    Bottlenose Dolphin Tursiops truncatus.

    This is one of a pod (group) of 6 dolphins that were riding the bow wave created at the front of our ship during a recent Arabian Sea expedition. Bottlenose dolphins, though presumed to be abundant, are not clean out of trouble- they are captured in large numbers for display in oceanaria, marine theme parks and even circuses. This has led to their ecological status being questioned in recent times.

    This is a very large crop of a single individual from an originally wide image with 3 to 4 dolphins in the frame (hence the quality loss); this image was created specifically for ID purposes. Will share the wide composition shortly.
