Dolphins are our oldest friend in the sea. You can see dolphins swimming
and playing in warm seas all over the world. Dolphins are popular at theme
parks, too. There are many stories about dolphins. Sometimes, dolphins help
ships in trouble. They also help people who are drowning.
Dolphins are about 8-9 feet (245-275 cm) long. They weigh 400-500 pounds
(180-225 kg). Dolphins are not fish. They are mammals. They live in large
groups. Dolphins have strong feelings and great memories. They are also very
smart.
