POD GOALS 😎

#DidYouKnow dolphins swim in pods because they rely on one another for social learning, building relationships, and survival. Living in pods allows dolphins to play, hunt, court, and protect each other.

Dolphins can hold their breath for several minutes, but when they surface, they typically breathe four to five times a minute. Using the blowhole on top of their heads, they exhale stale air before taking in fresh air. 🐬🌊
