The World Within: Dolphin In for Red

Dolphins don’t sleep like humans; they rest one hemisphere of their brain at a time while the other stays alert. At night, pods may slow down, drift, or swim in coordinated patterns while resting. Hunting: Some species, like spinner or bottlenose dolphins, hunt nocturnally, chasing schools of fish or squid that rise to the surface at night. Socializing: Darkness can bring playful behavior, as dolphins use echolocation instead of vision to navigate and interact.
