Read:
Brazil has a very special set of islands for spinner dolphins!
An idea for those who love swimming: imagine spending your whole life swimming in the middle of the ocean, without sighting land for most of the time. Did you get tired? That's how many ocean animals live, that is, those that don't live along beaches, mangroves or islands, but roam in the open sea for most of their lives. This is the case for countless fish, sharks and whales, among other marine animals.
