Dolphins are the most amazing marine mammals and are found in every ocean, from the frigid Arctic to tropical seas and even in rivers that flow into the ocean. They have long been popular with people and it is believed that dolphins have been helping humans for thousands of years.
To see these beautiful mammals you should visit Ranthambore National Park. Human activities are one of the most important factors that have resulted in the decrease in dolphin numbers. Overfishing is one activity that has led to the decline in dolphin numbers in the Chambal River. The decrease has also been due to habitat loss, which is caused by damming and sand mining. Pollution from industries such as thermal power plants, aluminum smelters and thermal effluent from paper mills has affected their food supply adversely.
