Dolphin

Dolphins are clever aquatic creatures that may be found all over the globe. There are 40 different kinds of dolphins, and they may be found in every ocean and even freshwater rivers. They can be as little as 6 feet long or as large as 31 feet long killer whales, which are technically members of the dolphin family. Dolphins can dive to depths of up to 1,000 feet and eat a variety of fish, squid, and crustaceans.

Although most dolphins have three stomachs, some have only two. The digestive systems of dolphins are designed to best serve their aquatic environment, which may require them to take advantage of a variety of feeding opportunities and prey availability. The forestomach, or first chamber, is the biggest of the compartments and may readily distend and stretch. It functions as a food receiving chamber. The digestive enzymes that break down food are secreted in the second chamber, commonly known as the glandular chamber. Finally, the pyloric compartment is responsible for controlling the transit of digested food into the small intestines.
