almost any summer day in
New Jersey, and you .will
probably see dolphins
svy-3uning along the beach.
Bottlenose -
- Those large, curved, gray
•dorsal fins going up and
down belong to the Atlantic
bottlenose dolphin, our
most well-known dolphin.
The bottlenoee is the only
dolphin that normally
swims dose to die shore in
New Jersey. They also give,
. birth in our waters, and we
can see the baby dolphins
swimming along dose to
their mothers.
Bottlenose dolphins live
in all oceans with warm
waters. About 3 feet long at
birth, they grow up to 10
jeet long as adults. They are
usually light gray on the
. ventral (stomach) side and
darker gray on the rest of
their body. '
During the summer; bottlenose
dolphins migrate a>.
far north as Cape tod. They"
come north to feed'on many
kinds of fish including bluefish,
mackerel;" 'menhaden;
thejfcuso eat squid.
••- Common
Common dolphins are
one of the offshore species
in New Jersey waters. They
are black on the dorsal
(back) side, white on the
ventral side, and have an
hourglass figure on their
sides that is tan in front and
gray in back. Common dolphins
grow to about 8 feet.
Striped
Striped dolphins are
another offshore species.
They are black on the dorsal
side and white on the ventral
side. As their name suggests,
they have a
distinctive stripe that
begins in front of the-eye
and runs to the ventral sift

Jersey that do not have a
beak. At birth, Risso's dolphins
are light grey on the
ventral side. As they grow
older, they get white stripes
scattered over, their bodies,
creating a light-colored
head and back, which contrasts
with a dark dorsal fin.
The stripes may be scars
from fights, or from squid
(Risso's main food). They
grow to about 13 feet.
Dolphins are often called
porpoises, but they are not.
Harbor porpoise 1
(not a dolphin)
Harbor porpoises prefer
cold water, so we see them
in New Jersey during the
winter and spring. Harbor
-porpoises are black on-the
dorsal side and white on
the ventral side. They only
grow to about"*; feet and
have a short, triangular
dorsal fin.

Hooded
Hooded seals are Arctic
seals, sharing range and'
whelping areas with harp
seals. Hooded seals, are
more nomadic than, harps,
though, and some have
wandered * as far south as
Florida and as far west as
California. Hooded seals
are called "bluebacks* at
birth because of their blush
fur, which soon becomes
dark brown. Adults' fur is
bluish with dark blotches.
Adult males have a dark
"hood" on their forehead
and a. red nasal sack hanging
from the nose,-which
they can inflate at will to
startle predators or rivals.
Rinaed
Ringed seals are the most
common seal in the Arctic
making mem a major part
of the Eskimo economy and
a primary prey spedes for
polar bears. They have gray
fur with dark spots; many
of the spots are surrounded
. by Ught rings. >
