Description
This photo captures a dolphin calf swimming close to its mother in the Gulf of Mexico. In Florida, calves are usually born in late spring. Spring is a special time when new lives are welcomed to this world. It is time filled with hope for the future.
The bottlenose dolphin is the only species found in all Gulf coastal habitats. There are an estimated 10,000 bottlenose dolphins in these coastal waters although the exact number is unknown. In most cases, the other species live far from land in deep Gulf of Mexico waters. (https://www.gulfspillrestoration.noaa.gov/2012/03/gulf-dolphins-answers/)
