## Caption

Australia | The iconic bottlenose dolphin lives in warm, temperate seas. Since dolphins cannot breathe underwater these mammals stay “half-asleep,” meaning that one half of their brain stays alert, while the other sleeps. The active half of the brain handles going to the surface for air, while the other side rests.
