SAFARI LTD Dolphins Toob Figure

Dolphins, like whales, are cetaceans – mammals that evolved and adapted to a full aquatic lifestyle. Their closest land-based relative is the hippopotamus. There are 40 species of dolphin spread throughout the oceans, and even freshwater rivers in some cases. While many dolphins prefer a warmer climate, some (like the southern right whale dolphin) inhabit colder waters. Dolphins are known for their intelligence, their playful nature, and their wide range of vocalizations which includes a variety of clicks, whistles and other noises. Many species of dolphin are currently endangered, and all face threats from climate change and pollution. Dolphins can also become tangled in nets meant to catch fish. Feature: - 10 pieces per TOOB®.
