Dolphins in packs and pairs: pictures

Whatever you may say about dolphins, one thing is clear: dolphins are rarely seen alone. They are highly social animals, almost always surfacing in pairs or in packs. When you think of these animals, it is kind of hard to visualize them hanging out alone without company. A dolphin all by itself is a miserable sight.

These pictures also show dolphins in their usual social environment, that is, in the company of other dolphins.

Another couple. Dolphins have a mouth that makes them look as if they smiled all the time. Or maybe they do smile all the time, huh?
