Скачать или смотреть Best encounter with Risso's dolphin in Portugal.

What a fantastic day on the ocean it was for the #AIMMPortugal team today! We were lucky enough to find a group of one of our less frequent visitors - Risso´s Dolphin! This was an especially exciting encounter as the animals were very relaxed and inquisitive, approaching our boat and allowing us many opportunities to observe their behaviour and social structure and collect some date for our research.
In total, we counted 4 mum/calf pairs and also some juveniles which is particularly interesting to see as the contrast in colour between young and old animals becomes very apparant. The calves are born darker in colour, but as the animals age, they accumulate numerous white scars from interactions with prey and other dolphins until they become almost completely white.
