March is #DolphinAwarenessMonth, and thanks to leading expert Dr. John Wang, we’re sharing some new photos of the Taiwanese white dolphin (TWD), a critically endangered subspecies on the brink of extinction.

It's #DolphinAwarenessMonth! Did you know that while the Humpback Dolphin is, obviously, named after the pronounced hump in front of their dorsal fin some can also be characterized by their distinct colouration?

I tried practicing a different perspective with this rough toothed dolphin!

Happy #DolphinAwarenessMonth! Anyone else get confused with the taxonomy of Killer Whales and other whale species that are actually dolphins that are technically whales?

A digital painting of a short-finned pilot whale in a vertical position near the surface of the water. These dolphins are easily recognized by their round head, narrow pointy flippers and mostly black/dark grey coloration.
I admittedly haven't posted enough dolphin stuff on #DolphinAwarenessMonth, so here's a painting of a short-finned pilot whale.

It's #DolphinAwarenessMonth! DYK there are between 36 & 40 species of dolphin swimming on Earth, depending on how you categorize certain subspecies? Maui’s dolphins are the smallest, coming in at an average of 50kg & 1.7m & Orcas are the largest at 6 tons and 9.5m

We can't let #DolphinAwarenessMonth swim by without noticing! 🐬
#Dolphins are intelligent, social animals that play an important role in healthy ocean ecosystems. We can help protect them by reducing plastic pollution & respecting their space on the water.

It's #DolphinAwarenessMonth!
Although we tend to picture the ocean when we think of dolphins, there are currently thousands of dolphins swimming in major river systems in both South America and Asia.
Have you checked our our Naming of Things blog series? We take a deep dive (pun intended!) on the names of certain cetaceans - check out this one on Humpback Whales vs Humpback Dolphins!

A satellite image of San Diego, California, showing the ocean at the top and the city below. White text at the top reads, "AN ANIMAL WHO NORMALLY LIVES HERE," referring to the ocean. Below, bold white text states, "SHOULD NOT LIVE HERE," with an arrow pointing to SeaWorld San Diego, which is highlighted with a red circle. The PETA logo appears in the bottom right corner. The image highlights the contrast between the natural ocean habitat and the captivity of marine animals at SeaWorld.

A captive orca swims in a small, tank with a speech bubble that reads, "The ocean is just too big." Below the image, bold white text states, "SAID NO ORCA EVER." The image highlights the absurdity of keeping orcas in captivity instead of allowing them to live freely in the ocean.
Orcas are born to explore vast oceans, not confined to concrete pools 💔

Amazon river dolphins are top predators that help regulate fish populations and keep the Amazon’s aquatic ecosystems in balance.
Protecting these remarkable dolphins therefore, helps safeguard the extraordinary biodiversity of the Amazon. 🐬 #DolphinAwarenessMonth
The image features a large orca (killer whale) visible through the glass of an aquarium tank, with silhouettes of people in the foreground observing it. A quote overlays the image: "No aquarium, no tank in a marine land, however spacious it may be, can begin to duplicate the conditions of the sea. -Jacques-Yves Cousteau". The logo for PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) is in the top right corner, and there's a small attribution to © Jo-Anne McArthur / We Animals in the bottom left corner.

#DolphinAwarenessMonth
A comic illustration features a scientist in a white lab coat holding a clipboard while standing next to a pool where a dolphin is swimming. The scientist says, "Your brain is even bigger than ours." The dolphin responds, "Perhaps that's why we don't find imprisoning you & forcing you to do tricks 'entertaining.'" A schedule or chart is visible on the wall behind the scientist. The comic is signed by Dan Piraro and is part of Bizarro Comics.
Orcas aren’t whales - they’re the biggest dolphins. Sailors called them “whale killers” after seeing them hunt whales, but the words flipped over time. Smart, social, and powerful, they’re not villains - just top predators.
#DolphinAwarenessMonth
There are no recorded instances of a "killer whale" killing a human in the wild. The only recorded orcas to ever cause the death of a human were being held in captivity. 50% of those deaths occurred at SeaWorld. #EmptyTheTanks
