to their mother?


Why baby dolphins swim so close to their mother?

One of the characteristics shared by most mammals is that they take care of their babies while they are young to teach them the necessary skills to get their food.

Also, they keep their babies close for protection.

In case of dolphins, calves are close to their mothers for the same reason, to protect them from predators and to teach them how to hunt their food.
