Whale Web: Risso's Dolphin
Risso's dolphins are widely distrubuted around the globe, but tend to be found offshore, towards deeper waters. They seem to stay near the edge of the continental shelf, and may be found close to shorelines of islands where the shelf is narrow. Their coloration varies from a very dark, almost black color, to a more common grey, with older animals appearing as a very pale grey, almost white. As a Risso's dolphin ages, it becomes covered with more and more scars on its body, probably caused by disputes with other members of the same species, though some might be the result of confrontations with squid, a primary staple of the dolphin's diet.
