Going Aquatic: Cetacean Evolution
All cetaceans, including whales, dolphins, and porpoises, are descendants of land-living mammals. How did these terrestrial ancestors morph over millions of years into the whales and dolphins we are so familiar with today? Dr. Mark Uhen answers questions about marine mammal evolution.

A couple of dolphins appeared in the bottom of the frame, followed by another whale! And then more dolphins 😍🤯 turns out there was an escort whale (protects mother and calf) and the dolphins came to check out the group. Such a beautiful moment and one of the countle

From Cetacean Conservation Alliance Assistant/China/Weibo Chimelong Ocean Kingdom, Xiangzhou, Zhuhai, Guangdong, China. "Among the nine killer whales participating in the performance, the dorsal fins of the males collapsed and the dorsal fins of the females were also deflected.

This incredible moment from cetacean guide and photographer @scottwilsonimagery has inspired me to seize the day! We often imagine an underwater world for whales, but a significant amount of their lives is spent above the water sometimes in mid air! Try to imagine the physics of launching a mass of many tons into the sky above! Important behavior for communication and exfoliation! Great shot Scott! #whales #naturephotography #wildlife #animals #oceans #fun #adventure | Jeff Corwin
