Another Fact about dolphins and the Hourglass DolphinQuestion:-What is the dolphins greatest predator? Answer: MAN! Man is the dolphins greatest predator, more then 100,000 dolphins die each year because of man, either in nets or for gastronomy. More information about dolphins and the Hourglass DolphinQuestion:-Do dolphins hibernate? Answer: No. In fact, they never fully sleep. When people breath, they do so involuntarily; as they sleep, they continue to breath. Dolphins, on the other hand, must swim to the surface, and then breath voluntarily. As a result, they don't sleep like we do. It is believed that only half of their brains sleep at a time. While one half of their brains is asleep, the other half is monitoring their swimming to the surface to take a breath.

Answer: All dolphins and whales can produce complex sounds, both for communication among them and for navigation under water. The common dolphin can hear sounds upwards of 150 KHz but generally produce sounds ranging from 1.5 to 11.0 KHZ. Patterns of sounds can be observed, mostly clicking, moans, whistles, trills, and squeaks. Males can whistle to get the attention of females or to warn the group of imminent danger (so does man, we are all mammals).
