Rissos Dolphin


Chris' Whale Watching Tours - Monterey Bay, CA

Northern Rightwhale dolphins
are definitely the most sleek
and silky smooth looking dolphins as they rise up and out of the
water shooting like bullets because they do not have a dorsal fin
on their back. They are really elegant looking and when you see
them fly out of the water you are left with a feeling of awe.
Their color markings are shinny ebony black with a debonair white
streak going down their bellies and have a very pointed head.

The big heavy round robust
Rissos dolphin's
can weigh up to
two thousand lbs. and get to be a length of thirteen and a half
feet long. Their body color and markings make them very unique
because they are born a cocoa color brown and get lighter and
lighter as they age while acquiring increasingly more scratches
and scars on their bodies. The oldest animals can look almost pure
white and the dorsal fin on their backs will often be tattered,
torn, and have whole chunks bitten out of them.
