I was asked to create a dolphin, and I thought it was an interesting idea, so here is my model of an anthro dolphin. I'm not sure what else to add. Usually, if it's not a specific character, I write a brief description, but I don't think there's anyone here who doesn't know what a dolphin is. Although.... A dolphin is any one of the 40 extant species of aquatic mammal from the cetacean families Delphinidae (the oceanic dolphins), Platanistidae (the Indian river dolphins), Iniidae (the New World river dolphins), Pontoporiidae (the brackish dolphins), and the probably extinct Lipotidae (baiji or Chinese river dolphin). All these families belong to the parvorder Odontoceti, i.e., toothed whales, which also include the closely related families Monodontidae (beluga and narwhal) and Phocoenidae (porpoises), as well as the more distant families Physeteroidea (sperm whales) and Ziphiidae (beaked whales).Dolphins range in sizes from the man-sized 1.7-metre-long and 50-kilogram Maui's dolphin; to the 9.5 m and 10-tonne apex predator, the orca. Various species of dolphins exhibit sexual dimorphism where the males are larger than females. They have streamlined, fish-like bodies with the two forelimbs evolving into flippers, complete loss of hindlimbs (with only vestigial pelvic skeleton), and the tail forming a horizontal fluke. Though not quite as flexible as the semiaquatic seals, they are faster and more agile in water; some dolphins can briefly travel at speeds of 29 kilometres per hour or leap about 9 metresJust in case. You never know who might stumble upon this and think, “Wait, what's a dolphin?”
