Dolphin Drama - The Battle Scars of the Pacific Ocean!

EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, Francois Gohier captures the intense underwater world of Risso's dolphins along California's stunning coast. These marine mammals may look cute and playful, but don't be fooled by their innocent appearance! Take a closer look at FG-EC-111, and you'll notice some serious battle scars. It seems that life in the vast Pacific Ocean isn't all smooth sailing for these dolphins. Heavy scarring on their backs and sides tells a tale of epic encounters with toothy comrades or feisty squid prey. It's like an aquatic version of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" – except instead of answering questions, they're dodging sharp teeth! These resilient creatures prove that survival in the wild is no walk in the park (or swim in the ocean). They've earned their stripes – or rather, scars – as badges of honor from countless battles fought beneath the waves. So next time you spot a Risso's dolphin gracefully gliding through the water, remember that behind those gentle eyes lies a warrior spirit. And if you ever get into an argument about who has more impressive battle wounds, just show them this incredible photo by Francois Gohier. It will leave everyone speechless and remind us all to appreciate nature's untamed beauty!
