U okolici otoka Visa uočili smo prve ovogodišnje 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗼𝗿𝗼đ𝗲𝗻𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗯𝗿𝗲 𝗱𝘂𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗲! Ženke Arganel, Jaglica i Dinko dale su svoj doprinos novoj generaciji. Plivajući uz sam bok majke, novorođeni mladunci koriste strujanje vode koje im smanjuje energiju potrebnu za plivanje. Također, veća masa potkožnog masnog tkiva u odnosu na veličinu njihovog tijela poboljšava im plovnost. U skupini su bili i jednogodišnjaci Srećka i Gatule. Srećkov mladunac malim je skokom pokazao napredak u veličini i okretnosti. Simboličnim usvajanjem dupina za sebe ili za nekog drugog možete podržati naše istraživanje, omogućujući nam da nastavimo pratiti živote ovih dobrih dupina kroz buduće generacije 👉 www.plavi-svijet.org/pridruzite-se/ ___ Around the island of Vis, we observed this year’s first 𝗻𝗲𝘄𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗻 𝗯𝗼𝘁𝘁𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗹𝗽𝗵𝗶𝗻𝘀! The females Arganel, Jaglica and Dinko contributed to the new generation. By swimming near their mothers, these newborns are provided with a slipstream, which reduces the energy required to swim. Their relatively higher blubber mass, further improves their buoyancy. The calves of Srećko and Gatula, which were also observed, are already a year older. They demonstrated the quick development of young bottlenose dolphins in size and mobility, evidenced by the little jump of Srećko’s calf. By #adoptingadolphin yourself or for somebody else, you can support our research, allowing us to keep documenting the lives of these bottlenose dolphins across many generations 👉 https://www.blue-world.org/get-involved/ ... #BlueWorldInstitute #AdriaticDolphins #MarineConservation #PlaviSvijetVis #AdoptADolphin #UsvojiDupina
