Spinner dolphins have amazing teamwork for attacking prey but scientists have found that their synchronization is even more complex than they realized and is used as a strategy to gain their energy intake. Scientists have studied that dolphins have a technique to enclose their prey, and they circle their “food” to confuse them. What is amazing about this is that it is usually at night time deep in the ocean and they can’t see a single thing, yet they still have perfect synchronization.

I think dolphins are very unique and they are so amazing in the ways they live there lifes. it also impresses me how an animal can be so smart.
I found out that because it greatly expands knowledge of spinner dolphin behavior and it opens up new fields of scientific examination into underwater ecosystems made it possible by technological advancements in acoustical monitoring. It was found by the National Science Foundation and the Office of Naval Research.
