Hector's Dolphin
Hector's Dolphin is a small species of dolphin found only in the coastal waters of New Zealand. It is known for its distinctive rounded dorsal fin and a robust body, typically measuring about 1.2 to 1.5 meters in length. This dolphin primarily inhabits shallow waters and is often seen in bays and estuaries.
Hector's Dolphin is a social animal, often found in small groups. It feeds mainly on fish and squid, using echolocation to locate its prey. Unfortunately, this species is considered endangered due to threats such as habitat loss, fishing bycatch, and pollution in its natural environment.
