Mammals: Dolphin\nRange: all the oceans of the world\nHabitat: some are mainly coastal but other spend their lives far at sea\n\nIt’s all relative\nYou might not realize that dolphins are closely related to whales. The scientific order, called Cetacea, includes dolphins, whales, and porpoises. The dolphin family Delphinidae has 36 species in all. It can get confusing at times, because some members of the dolphin family have the word "whale" in their common name. In fact, the largest dolphin is the killer whale! Depending on the species, dolphins range in color from white, pearl, and pink to darker shades of brown, gray, blue, and black.\n\nRange\nDolphins can be found in virtually all the seas and oceans of the world.  Some species are sharply restricted, but many, like the common dolphin, Delphinus delphis, or the bottle nose dolphin, are found worldwide.  Several species are found in fresh water, notably the Ganges River dolphin, Platanista gangetica; the rivers of South America are the home of the long-snouted dolphin, Inia geoffrensis, and the small, graceful Sotalia fluviatilis, occasionally seen as far as 1,553 miles up the Amazon River.\n\nDolphins are quite abundant in some areas of the world.  Off the coast of Japan, for example, populations of the white-sided dolphin, are estimated at 30,000 to 50,000 individuals.  In many species, schools of up to 1,000 travel together, while some species, such as the bottle-nose dolphin, tend to be found in smaller groups of less than 100. \n\nRANGE:\nMost species live in tropical and temperate oceans throughout the world. Five species live in rivers.\n\nHABITAT:\nAll but five of the 34 dolphin species live in tropical and temperate oceans. Five species that live in rivers: baiji (Chinese River dolphin), boto (Amazon River dolphin), franciscana (La Plata River dolphin), Ganges River dolphin and Indus River dolphin.\n\nCHECK THIS:\n32 Dolphin Species\nhttp://www.dolphin-isl-greenware.org/marine_lab/blue_hangar/egdolfaq.htm#faq2\n\nhttp://www.enchantedlearning.com/themes/dolphins.shtml

I have done it twice at Sea World Orlando. It is not just specifically swimming with dolphins though it was a trainer for a day and marine mammal keeper program. All of the Seaworlds have these programs and there is a SeaWorld Texas in San Antionio and SeaWorld California in San Deigo. California also has Marineland. The other one I know about is the Discovery Cove in Orlando Florida which is specifically designed for people who want to swim with dolphins.

Researchers say that dolphins, along with whales and porpoises, are descendants of land-living mammals, most likely of the Artiodactyl order. Modern dolphin skeletons have two small rod shaped pelvic bones thought to be left-over hind legs. They entered the water roughly 50 million years ago.

At the time of the first survey in 2001, the dolphins, which are endemic to Pakistan and already listed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) as a 'most threatened' species, had a population of only 1,100.\n\nYou will find more details at this link:\n\nhttp://science.monstersandcritics.com/features/article_1153678.php/Pakistan_wildlife_surveys_Indus_Blind_dolphin

The dolphin's life can be, at times, very confusing. To make this easier to understand, we have made a cycle showing you the dolphins life. Like humans, dolphins are mammals. They give birth to live young. The only mammal that doesn't give birth to live young is the Platypus. Dolphinsare considered as one of the smartest animals in the world!  There life starts out when there babies, and when they grow older they choose which direction that their going to take. Most babies will stay with the pack that their mothers are in. When they are adults, they will find a mate. During the mating season, reproduction will occur.

.WHALES AND DOLPHINS:\n\nWhales and Dolphins are marine animals. They live in oceans around the world. Whales and Dolphins come from the same family, CETACEA (sey-tay-sha) . They both breath from a blowhole located at the top of their head. Whales and dolpins are mammals. They are mammals because they have lungs not gills,they have hair not scales , and they also have give live birth and don't lay eggs. There are only about 80 kinds of whales and dolphins that we know of right now.\n\nWHALES:\nWhales are very large animals. They can grow up to 100 ft. or more in length. They can weigh up to 200 tons or more. Whales live in families called pods. These pods vary in numbers and consist of family members and family friends. Whales live in these families their whole life. Group living is safer when other whales or sharks attack. It also makes it easier to find food. Whales are always migrating. They travel to find food, breed and have young.\nWhales do not have eyelids. They rely on thick oily tears to protect their eyes. Whales hear from little holes behind their eyes.\n\nWhales talk to each other by making high pitched sounds like whistles, clicks, squeaks, rattles, and groans.\n\nTo help protect the whales from extinction please DO NOT throw nets, fishing lures, or other fishing gear ocean\n\nDOLPHINS:\nDolphins live with the whales in the oceans. But dolphins come much closer to the shore. They will come as close to the shore as you or I can walk without going under water. Dolphins have teeth.\nLooking at a dolphin you would not think it as a nose, but surprise...it does! They have nostrils called blowholes. Over millions of years of evoloution whales and dolphins nostrils moved to the top of their head. This allows them to breath by surfacing instead of them sticking their whole head out of the water.\nThe first thing a newborn dolphin must do is to go to the surface to breathe. But the baby can not swim so its mother and a another dolphin will help push the baby to the surface for its first breath of air. The baby will be able to swim in about 30 min.\nDolphins are fast swimmers. When a speeding boat passes the bottlenose dolphin, it will start to race out in front . They will take off hitting the water and keep going.\nDolphins navigate by following the hills and mountains of the ocean floor, by tracking the sun, by sensing currents, and by tasting the water along the journey.\nA dolphin's sound probably originated in its nasal passages. These nasal passages are located on the top of the head. Dolphins can make sounds to see what lies ahead. This sense is called echolocations. The dolphins' sound waves hit an object and the echo bounces back. Echolocation sounds are called sprays. Sprays are so strong they can stun another whale. Dolphins don't "point" their melons at any other sealife except their enemies.\n\nSHARKS:\nOut of all the species walking, flying, slithering or swimming, there aren't many who have been around as long, survived as well, or come in so many shapes and kinds as the shark. The earliest evidences of sharks are isolated spines, teeth and scales that appeared about 430 million years ago in the Silurian Period, known as the "Age of Fishes". Sharks have a sleek, streamlined design which helps them swim without using up a lot of energy.They certainly need to conserve their energy because they never really sleep and most of them never stop swimming.\n\nSome sharks are fierce predators, and would be happy to eat you if they encountered you. Almost any shark six feet or longer is a potential danger, but three species have been identified repeatedly in attacks: the Great White Shark, the Tiger Shark and the Bull Shark . All three live world wide, reach large sizes and eat large prey such as marine mammals or sea turtles. But most sharks never grow longer than five feet and never even see anyone with legs and arms anyway. People kill thousands more sharks every year than sh

This site will connect you to contact information for a ten day trip in the Maldives off of India that includes swimming with dolphins. I imagine that the same people can give you information about just swimming with dolphins without actually taking the whole ten day trip. Good luck. It's something I've always wanted to do as well....\n\nhttp://www.people-oceans-dolphins.com/Trips/Maldives/
