Pantropical Spotted Dolphin Stenella attenuata


ETP cetaceans


Pantropical Spotted Dolphin Stenella attenuata
(right) is quite variable.
Inshore populations are heavily spotted (hence the name) but offshore stocks
are not. There may be more than one species involved. They were very shy
and fled the ship's approach, likely a response to previous experiences
being caught in tuna purse nets.
