Dolphins are aquatic mammals that are closely related to whales and porpoises. There arealmost forty species of dolphin in seventeen genera . 
They vary in size from 1.2 metres (4 ft) and 40 kilograms (88 lb) (Maui's Dolphin), up to 9.5 m (30 ft) and ten tonnes (the Orca or Killer Whale). They are found worldwide, mostly in the shallower seas of the continental shelves, and are carnivores, mostly eating fish and squid. The family Delphinidae is the largest in the Cetacea, and relatively recent: dolphins evolved about ten million years ago, during the Miocene. Dolphins are considered to be amongst the most intelligent of animals and their often friendly appearance and seemingly playful attitude have made them popular in human culture.

"The Dream Of The Dolphin"
In every colour there's the light. In every stone sleeps a crystal. Remember the Shaman, when he used to say: "Man is the dream of the dolphin". |
