Dolphin

Dolphins are large, aquatic mammals who live in the seas and larger rivers. Highly intelligent and with their own language, they are not fish. Dolphins have always appeared playful in the presence of humans, and there are going back thousands of years of them playing alongside sailing ships. Many of these stories speak about dolphins sometimes aiding and rescuing people who have found themselves lost at sea, and there are also many stories of people riding them. In ancient Greece, the dolphin was sacred to the Oracle at Delphi and even gave the sacred place its name.
