Hoie Dolphin Research Paper

The Dolphins are off to a rough start as they begin the season 0-3. Trying to build a better reputation, the team has been working hard to improve their skills and hopefully come out with a few wins this year. So far nothing consequential has been seen from Dana as they are yet to find the element that will take their team to victory.

There are five teams that are worthy of being called the greatest team in NFL history: the 1972 Miami Dolphins, the 1978 Pittsburgh Steelers, the 1984 San Francisco 49’ers, the 2007 Patriots, however the 1985 Chicago Bears stand out amongst the crowd because of their outrageous defense, popularity amongst the NFL fans, and their roster that was filled with Hall of Fame talent. According to the 1985 Chicago Bears Statistics & Players (2017), the team finished with a season record of 15-1. News analyst Tony Andracki (2016) stated that, “The 1985 Bears turned in one of the most dominant seasons in American Sports” (p.1).

On August 24th was the Miami Dolphins football game versus the Atlanta Falcons. Although it was a preseason game it was still important because, the week before we got beat by the Dallas Cowboys 41-21,and we didn't want that to happen again. So in practice they worked harder and harder Intel it was game day. When they got off the buses they meant business, they looked ready to go. Everyone sat down at there sets 5...4...3...2...1 the boom the ball was kicked soaring as high as the birds.

I am like a Bottlenose Dolphin. In nature, Bottlenose Dolphins are known for their advance thought processing, communication skills, sense of curiosity, and open minds. Like a Bottlenose Dolphin, I have all the same attributes that make me a distinct student and individual. To the advanced mind of a Bottlenose Dolphin, the ocean is its domain that it can mature in and mold in the way it pleases. For me, the entire earth is my domain to mature in and to mold. The unique way I want to shape the future of the world is by becoming a biomedical engineer and using what I have learned during my studies to change the world of biomedicine. I will use my dolphin like attributes to aid me in reaching my goal. Once I become a biomedical engineer I will surely have accomplished my goal in life and hopefully will be well on my way to changing others way of life..

At this point in time, it is getting harder and harder for a man to surprise the love of his life with an engagement ring and the word, “Will you marry me?” Countless men have gotten on bended knee on the beach, at a football game, cruise ship, and the spot where they met their partner.

An average of 30,000 people visit SeaWorld Parks in the United States yearly, however, many of the visitors are unaware of the secrets the parks hide right in front of their eyes. SeaWorld is a popular theme park and marine zoological park with locations in Florida, Texas, and California. They host hundreds of types of marine life and their most popular being their orca whales. Only, these whales, dolphins, and other animals face many challenges in the captivity of the parks. Many of the original animals were taken from their natural home just to become another one of the parks’ pet fish. The whales, dolphins, walruses, and other animals are forced to breed and they become sick and injured too easily in their artificial habitat causing them to die earlier than they inherently should. They, also, pose a threat to the staff and trainers of the park during training and shows. So, the world needs to ban together to condemn Seaworld parks and their dangerous habits across the globe.

SeaWorld. We’ve all heard of it. First the spectacular shows and mesmerising performances of marine animal and men. Then the truth; years later. The torture of animals and the small confinement that these animals have been forced to live in, Orcas that were “...confined to a tank containing 0.0001 percent of the quantity of water that he would traverse in a single day in nature.” High death rates and big behavioural changes in the animals that have never been seen in the wild. Several that have caused death of other animals and humans.

Bottlenose Dolphins are a very interesting animal. They have a fusiform (Spindle shaped) body that allows them to move quickly in the water. Because of the Dolphins’ shape they have bilateral symmetry. They also have a dorsal fin, flippers, and a fluke. However, Bottlenose Dolphins do not have ears on the outside of their bodies, hair, or hind limbs. The color of this type of dolphin is usually a light grey color to a black. Their stomach is white and sometimes has a pink hue. One physical adaptation these dolphins have is a telescoped skull. The skull is like this because it allows them to breathe more easily while swimming. Bottlenose Dolphins also have blubber that they use as insulation and vascular shunts that allow them to have cooling for certain types of organs and tissues in their bodies. Finally, Bottlenose Dolphins have sharp teeth that let them grasp onto their prey, so their tongue can push the prey down the dolphin’s throat. Bottlenose Dolphins have a range mass of 260 to 500kg which is 572.69 to 1101.32 in pounds. The average mass of the Bottlenose Dolphin is 400kg. Their average mass in pounds is 881.06.

The Spinner dolphin is a dolphin that is found in offshore tropical waters around the world. It is famous for its acrobatic displays in which it spins along its longitudinal axis as it leaps through the air. That is where the name “Spinner” comes from. It is a family member of the Delphinidae of toothed whales. There are 4 subspecies of the Spinner dolphin. But, the Gray’s Spinner dolphin is most common.

SeaWorld rescues and saves over 27,000 sea animals each year. That is a lot of sea animals that are given a second chance at life. What do you think would happen if SeaWorld was not allowed to help these animals and take them in? They wouldn’t be saved and would die a suffery death. Sea animals should be allowed to be held in aquariums and marine parks (captivity).

The bottlenose dolphin, genus Tursiops, is a cetacean renowned for its social intelligence, even being prescribed the status of non-human persons along with other intelligent species such as great apes. Both dolphins and primates share a number of attributes that have led to an evolutionary propensity for intelligence, including prolonged parental care, long lives, complex social bonds, and communicative cooperation (Reynolds et al., 2000). But unlike primates, dolphins lack opposable thumbs, as well as any sort of limb that is able to manipulate their environment capably. Dolphins evolved in an environment that is less affected by gravity and provides three-dimensional movement, but provides limited chemosensory and visual cues for orientation

My animal is a spinner dolphin. A little about me is that I like to believe I’m pretty smart, I like to do fun stuff with my friends, and I’m a pretty good swimmer. My animal, the Spinner Dolphin, is one of the smartest breeds of its species, obviously a fast swimmer, and travel in pacts with their friends and mostly family. This dolphin and I are roughly the same size and weight. Here’s some more things me and the Spinner Dolphin have in common.

“ Well- hell! I had him so long. Had him since he was a pup. I hearded sheep with him.” (3.44)His dog used to be strong and helpful when he was younger but now he is useless and has a putrid odor.

Kim spent much of her time in Cape Cod, New Jersey as a child with her parents and two siblings. One day, Kim was with her mother and older sister, Jan, shopping in downtown Cape Cod. The girls had a favorite store that sold ornaments and decorations for multiple holidays. One year around Thanksgiving time, Kim’s mom bought three ornaments. They were all the same, a white bivalve-shaped sea shell, with red bells and silver snowflakes painted on it. She told Erica that they still have their shells, and when their mother passed away, that shell was kept with Kim’s sister.

Californian Sea Lions have roamed the docks of San Francisco, California for over 25 years now. Though the Sea Lions have only been here for a short period of time, the sleek mammal has become a welcoming member of the pier harbors, playing a significant role in attracting tourists from around the globe. Shortly after the Loma Prieta earthquake that hit San Francisco in 1989, Sea Lions began hauling out on Pier 39’s K-Dock; and by January of 1890, the K-Dock was flooded by the marine animals. Since then, the numbers of Sea Lions only grew, and the relationship between them and San Francisco became more prominent. The literary work “Rats” written by Robert Sullivan had explored the relationship between the unwanted rodents and the city of New York, addressing the connection with observations of
