... It is the one most used in the media and is kind of the 'poster child' for the Dolphin. It is also the species that is mostly in captivity around the world, due to their high numbers, such as the dolphin here that is in the Ocean park in Valencia.

The Bottlenose Dolphin can live in any waters around the world, except for the polar waters. They like warm and temperate seas however. They prefer to live in groups as they are a social animal, and it is not uncommon to find them with groups of up to 15 other dolphins. Even when they are kept in parks like this one, they like to have company and they like to play, so it is necessary that they live with other dolphins.
