Everything Dolphin
This site is dedicated to everyone in the delphinidae family. Usually collections of resources that expand outside of a couple of dolphin species try to include everything in the infraorder Cetacea. It is our hope that by focusing on delphinidae, we can better present an in depth set of information on this site about these amazing creatures.

Dolphins capture the imagination and attract a wide range of personalities from a vast range of backgrounds. As such, this often creates controversy within the dolphin community. It is our desire to provide a place where information about dolphins can be shared in a way that will be recive by a wide range of personal views.
Philosophy
At Delphinidae, we believe in the proper care of both captive and free dolphins, and in the programs that support research that allows us a better understanding of how to care for both the dolphins and our oceans, and just as importantly, inspires the next generation to do the same.
