內容簡介: |
Friendly and fascinating, dolphins are one of nature''s most
intelligent animals. They live in families called pods and can make
a series of 2,000 high-pitched clicks to locate fish in the water.
Despite their beauty and playfulness, dolphins face serious dangers
from commercial fishing and human activity. It''s vital that people
support governmental laws to protect these wonderful
creatures.
Award-winning science writer Seymour Simon has teamed up with the
Smithsonian Institution to give you an expert view of these clever,
curious, and mischievous mammals in a full-color photographic
introduction.
