Do you know the difference between a dolphin and a porpoise?

They’re both highly intelligent; they use echolocation to find food, communicate, and navigate; they come to the surface to breathe. They even look pretty similar. But they are not the same.

Here’s how you can tell them apart:
Dolphins have longer, leaner bodies and hooked or curved dorsal fins. Their faces have elongated beaks, and their teeth are pointed and cone shaped. They’re talkative, communicating with clicks, squeaks, buzzes, and whistles. They’re highly social and curious—they’ll swim right up to your boat!

Porpoises have smaller, more stout bodies and triangular dorsal fins. They have short faces with rounded beaks and their teeth are flat and spade shaped. They communicate using high-pitched clicks. They can be very shy, less social, and avoid boats.

Learn more about the similarities (and differences) between the species and how you can help protect them:

Dolphins and porpoises are both cetaceans, but they have distinct characteristics that set them apart. Learn how to recognize a dolphin vs. a porpoise.
