	Dolphin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dolphins are aquatic mammals related to whales and porpoises, famous for their intelligence, apparent compassion, and joy.
		Dolphins are widely believed to be amongst the most intelligent of all animals, though it is hard to say just how intelligent dolphins are as straightforward comparisons of species' relative intelligence are complicated by differences in sensory apparatus, response modes, and nature of cognition.
		Most dolphins have acute eyesight, both in and out of the water, and their sense of hearing is superior to that of humans.
