The dolphin's life can be, at times, very confusing. To make this easier to understand, we have made a cycle showing you the dolphins life. Like humans, dolphins are mammals. They give birth to live young. The only mammal that doesn't give birth to live young is the Platypus. Dolphins are considered as one of the smartest animals in the world!  There life starts out when there babies, and when they grow older they choose which direction that their going to take. Most babies will stay with the pack that their mothers are in. When they are adults, they will find a mate. During the mating season, reproduction will occur. To learn more about the dolphins life, use the pictures on the right to go to that page.
