Food Chain

Bottlenose dolphins eat fish, squid, shrimp and other sea creatures. To catch the food they get into a group and circle their prey. Dolphins are carnivores which means all they eat is meat. They trap their prey in shallow water so it is easy to catch. Some dolphins are in the middle of the food chain because they eat fish, krill and other sea creatures and sharks can eat them. Dolphins sure have an appetite in the sea.
