5 Facts about the pacific white sided dolphin:
1. They are the most abundant dolphin species in the North Pacific and estimated to have a population of around 900,000, but very little is actually known about them in British Columbia waters and no accurate population estimate currently exists.
2. They travel in groups throughout their lives and are usually spotted in groups of 10 - 100, although some groups have been seen with 2,000 or more individuals. The largest congregation of this species was reported offshore and was estimated to be close to 6000 individuals traveling together.
3. They can live to be 40 years old.
4. Their primary predators are orcas and sharks.
5. Researchers aren’t sure why this species of dolphin was absent from the BC coast for several decades, but they suspect that changes in ocean temperature or fish populations may have encouraged their return.
