Definition
plural of dolphin; highly intelligent marine mammals known for their playful behavior
Etymology
from Old French 'daulphin', from Latin 'delphinus', from Greek 'delphis'
Kelly Says
Dolphins are so smart they have names for each other - unique whistle signatures that function like human names! They're also one of the few animals that can recognize themselves in mirrors.
