Bottle-nosed Dolphin (Tursiops truncatus)

The bottlenose dolphin, also known as an "Atlantic" dolphin, feeds on a variety of fishes, squids, shrimps and crabs.  It is very adept at locating prey by projecting a sound beam and listening for the echo.  It can swim at a speed of up to 14 knots and dive for more than 6 or 7 minutes.
