Bottlenose dolphin - blowing air bubbles underwater
Distribution: Worldwide except polar regions
Tursiops truncatus
Complex play / creative behaviour: dolphins often play with the bubbles or rings of air they create, both visually and by using sonar. They appear to enjoy biting the vortex rings, so that these burst into many seperate normal bubbles, which then rise more rapidly to the surface. They also play games, diving through the bubble rings for fun!

EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot by Augusto Leandro Stanzani, we witness the enchanting world of a bottlenose dolphin in action. With finesse and grace, this marine mammal effortlessly blows air bubbles underwater, creating a mesmerizing spectacle that seems straight out of a symphony. As the dolphin glides through the crystal-clear waters, its sleek body glistens under the sunlight. Its single fin elegantly cuts through the waves as it indulges in one of its favorite tricks – bubble blowing! With each exhale, an array of iridescent bubbles dance around it like tiny magical orbs. This adorable creature appears to be playing with its own breath, showcasing not only its intelligence but also its mischievous nature. It's as if the dolphin has discovered a secret language hidden within these ephemeral spheres – communicating joy and excitement to anyone lucky enough to witness this delightful performance. From temperate seas to tropical paradises across worldwide oceans - Pacific, Atlantic, Indian Ocean and Indo-Pacific regions - dolphins continue to captivate our hearts with their playful antics. They remind us that even in vast depths where silence reigns supreme, there is room for laughter and fun. So dive into this extraordinary moment captured by Stanzani and let your imagination swim alongside these bubbly wonders. Let their infectious enthusiasm inspire you to find joy in life's simplest pleasures – just like our finned friends beneath the waves!
