The White Sea Mouth Dolphin is a vivid representative of the Whale-like dolphin species and the Short-faced Dolphins. In conditions of captivity, as a rule, gray classical animals are kept, but sometimes it is quite possible to meet white-faced beauties who are distinguished by social behavior and well-developed intuition.
White-faced dolphins are distinguished by a strong and fairly dense body structure. Such a water inhabitant is characterized by sociability and curiosity, as well as a rather large mobility and playfulness.
White Sea Dolphin is a rather large in size aquatic inhabitant. The average length of an adult animal is three meters with body weight up to 350-355 kilograms. For such an aquatic inhabitant, the sides and upper part beyond the area of the dorsal fin are of a grayish-white coloration. The lower part of the body has a white color, and the upper side in front of the dorsal fin region is grayish-black. The dorsal fin and flippers of the white-faced dolphin are distinguished by a blackish color.
The beak of the aquatic inhabitant is usually white in color, but in some individuals it is ashen-gray. White-faced dolphins have 25-28 well developed and fairly strong teeth on each jaw. Representatives of the species of dolphin from the order of the Cetaceans and the genus Short-faced dolphins are characterized by the presence of 92 vertebrae, which exceeds the number of such formations in any other species from the family of Delphinidae. White-faced dolphins can swim, easily reaching speeds of up to 30 km / h and periodically diving to a depth of 40-45 meters or even more.
