Commerson's Dolphin Is The Most Cutest Dolphin On The Planet (Video & Pictures)

Dolphins and toothed whales belonging to the mammal family. Approximately, there are 42 dolphin species and 7 porpoise species which are grouped into six families: the oceanic dolphin family is by far the largest with 38 members; the porpoise family has seven members; and there are four river dolphin families, each containing just one species in the world.



Commerson's dolphins are known to be very social and playful. They can swim up to 7-8 miles per hour, often leaping out of the water and spinning in the air. These dolphins also ride the waves behind boats, breaking waves on the shore, or swimming upside-down. However, swimming upside-down may have more to do with increasing their visibility.
