Presentation transcript:

What are Pink Dolphins ? ‏Pink dolphins ( 白海豚 ) are related to the humpback dolphins. They are usually grey or blue in colour. Only those around China ( 中華白海豚 ) have naturally pink skin due to the blood flowing close to the top of the skin.

Appearance Measures 2.2 to 3 m long, although the males are usually larger Weighs between kg. The Pink Dolphin's tale is relatively big and it has 2 flippers. It has small eyes. The Pink Dolphin can turn its head completely round, due to it’s un-fused vertebrae.

Habitat They are found in most places around Southeast Asia, but their have been sightings from South Africa to Australia. Here in China, they mostly reside in the Pearl River Estuary and between the sea and the rivers North Lantau is popular for it’s dolphin watch

Reproduction Chinese White Dolphins generally live in groups of 3-4 They mature between the ages of They mate from the end of summer to autumn. Young are born after months and are taken care of until able to hunt themselves. Females can give birth every three years or so The average White Dolphin can live up to 40 years

Increasing Dangers Boats (ferries, dinghies, etc) are disrupting their daily lives Pollution in the form of garbage cause bacteria and then infections Landfills are leaving dolphins stranded away from their homes Overfishing is reducing the amount of prey for the dolphins and the government do not have laws restricting amount or size of fish

How can we help? Write to the government for the saving of these “critically endangered” species Eat less seafood and don’t buy marine animal products Use more bio-degradable products as many may end up in the sea Cut down on petroleum usage, because petroleum is shipped in boats. When these ships crash, they spill oil into the sea.
