Fraser's Dolphin Lagenodelphis hosei Family: Delphinidae Genus: Lagenodelphis Status and Conservation: Least Concern This dolphin species was first identified in 1895 when a skull was discovered on a Borneo beach. The skull was later donated to the British Museum, where Scottish zoologist Francis Fraser determined that...

Join the club here. ____________________________________ Very nice dolphin to draw as all dolphins. I am enjoying working on the cetacea order. There are many animals here that are new to me. How about you? See you next week with more animals!

Their muscles for sucking add negative pressure that is produced by the increased inner mouth space, according to ScienceAlert.Īlthough dolphins have been observed playing with snakes in the past, including river dolphins messing with a large anaconda, the video provided evidence that dolphins may also consume these reptiles. The dolphins' throat muscles can be seen in the footage springing into action, and their tongues retracted out of the way as they largely swallowed fish into the sides of their open mouths. The footage showed that instead of ramming their prey, the dolphins used suction to gulp down their prey using their powerful throat muscles. The cameras also captured the sound of the animals' racing hearts as they struggled to keep up with the demanding activities. They also used vision and echolocation simultaneously to locate a fish.

More than 200 fish were captured by the dolphins with cameras affixed to them, including bass, croakers, halibut, smelt, and pipefish.īut more interestingly, the dolphins followed their prey's move and used a method previously seen in wild dolphins to swim upside down so their swiveling eyes could see clearly. On contact with fish, buzzing and squealing were almost constant until after the fish was swallowed," the team added. This plushy is made with the highest quality materials, that’s why it will last for a long time. Its soft and pliable quality makes Cute Dolphin Stuffed Animal a favorite for little girls, grown up ladies, and even older people. "On approaching prey, click intervals shorten into a terminal buzz and then a squeal. Cute Dolphin Plush is the perfect gift to give any young woman. NMMF marine mammal veterinarian Sam Ridgway and colleagues said that when the dolphins hunted for food, they clicked continuously at intervals of 20 to 50ms. Their mouths and eyes were seen in startlingly off-angle positions when the recording equipment was positioned on their sides or backs.Īlthough these dolphins are not in the wild, they are regularly given a chance to hunt in the open ocean to supplement their typical frozen fish diet. These recordings have given us fresh perspectives on the hunting techniques and social interactions of these sea mammals. Six bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) were equipped with cameras from the US National Marine Mammal Foundation (NMMF), which captured footage and audio over six months.

Best experience to see dolphins  ❤

I've been musing over a few thoughts inspired by this ask about a mafia-ish style of Apex Polarity without it being too close to Pearl Eye, and after watching a few videos of Orcas hunting their prey (which included dolphins), landed on a sort of Mafia inspired Apex Polarity AU

Also not to add another Y/N to Orclipse's growing collection but this Y/N is a white-beaked dolphin. Look! They're so beautiful!

Sirens are cunning, brutal, and take everything with teeth and claws. The strongest kill and maim at a whim. As a siren who's not particularly strong, though incredibly agile, with a tail streamlined and dark gray with white patches, fins curved and mostly black, you're somewhere at the bottom. You're doing your best to survive and avoid trouble. You pick your battles and you pick your escapes, and most importantly, you stay alive.

But then you do something really stupid: you venture where you shouldn't have.

You don't usually swim so far up north but you're hungry, and the thought of a few tasty squids distracts you from the silent waters and vast, blue emptiness. You realize a bit too late that you're not the only one hunting.

You catch the first orca siren in the distance as a dark figure, and then another. Two who immediately cut through the water, charging straight for you like shadows. Though you turn tail and bolt, you quickly spot them in the corner of your vision. They easily keep pace, their size and strength overwhelming as they flank you on both sides, wide grins flashing their deadly teeth. You can hardly look at the mismatched color of their eyes as you dodge and weave, diving down only to be cut off by one with midnight blue colors at the tip of his flukes, and shooting off to the left just to almost be snatched by the black-bone claws of a siren with bright yellow fins framing his head.

They're toying with you. You know that for a fact in how they just barely keep back, corraling you onwards, draining your already spent energy, and picking at your panicking pulse. You have no choice but to avoid the edges of their jaws and the tips of their talons, and swim in the direction they want.

You near a field of ice floes floating on the water, and though you cut into the jagged structures dipping into the sea, the orca sirens never lose you. A desperate need for air pushes you onward. One small drop of hope still burns in your chest. Despite the aching of your muscles, you steal a gulp of oxygen and dip back down once more, charging away—

Only to run smack into a third orca siren.

This one grabs you, his burning red and orange colors filling your vision. The other two orcas join to help their kin keep you in place long enough for you to truly regret ever venturing here. Between the three of what you can only assume are brothers, hands hooked over you shoulders, claws clutching your wrists, and palms pressing into your hips, you're a fish caught in a net.

You brace for a voilent end. It never arrives. Instead of digging into your sweet meat, the sirens offer you a deal. The tips of sharp fingertips trace your jawline and the soft inside of your arms and down your slick tail while they explain.

You keep watch for human ships and report back when they're getting close, and in exchange, you get the best food you can imagine, the entire Arctic Ocean to swim, and anything else you'd like. The best benefit? You're under their protection. Of course, they expect utter loyalty from you. You are no one else's. Failure to devote yourself to this work and the brothers would mean a grisly fate, but hey, you're nothing if not eager to not be torn apart. So you agree.

You have a few questions about this whole arrangement, struggling to understand why they, powerful orca sirens, bother with a smaller fish like you when they could rip you limb from limb and be done. What's with the human ships? Why task you to this? Are you just fodder so they can keep their fins nice and unscabbed? They reassure you that they'll explain in due time (the sunny one booping your nose, much to your chagrin), but for now, all you know to know is that the human ships are a problem, and you are their solution for it. You've never really encountered humans before, but they've never really encountered sirens, or so you thought.

The burning red one lets you go, but you don't slip away too far before he tugs on your flukes and tells you to follow him. It's not a request. The darker blue one leaves for a moment, jetting away as the other two guide you to a nice resting place on an icy shore. They introduce themselves, and then their brother reappears with a squid in hand, half dead, and an insistence that you eat—they could tell during the chase that you didn't have all your energy.

And that's how you unwittingly join a very powerful pod of orca brothers who may or may not be teasing and taunting you simultaneously.

The digital sticker album is almost done. I will begin with Perissodactyla order which contains the rhinos, horses, and tapirs families. Is looking good and the mechanics are working. More of it soon. Let's see the animal of this week. Māui Dolphin This is a subspecies of Hector's Dolphin (The one I showed you the last time). Also, live uniquely on New Zealand coasts, but more specifically in a very small range of the West of the North Island of the country. Sadly, less than 60 animals exist in the wild, making it the most endangered dolphin in the world. There are several programs that are in action in order to protect it from extinction and the results have been somehow optimistic. Fishing, Toxoplasmosis (an infection caused by a parasite called Toxoplasma), Brucellosis (a Bacteria), Oil and gas operations, and Climate change are the reasons why this dolphin is on the brink of extinction. It's always sad to see an animal fading away. I hope the programs that are working to recover their numbers work. Here is a link to one of them in case you want to know more.
