These dolphins communicate using a series of clicks and buzzing sounds that allow these dolphins to talk to one another and determine which one in the group is communicating.
In most cases they prefer to travel in small pods consisting of 3 – 6 dolphins although their pod size may increase to include 15 or more dolphins on occasion.
While in their pods they remain social with one another and may occasionally intermingle with other pods.
These dolphins are not the type to bring attention to themselves as they are rarely seen splashing, rolling and slapping their fins against the water.
Other activities occasionally observed include spitting water, spy hopping and blowing bubbles.
Generally when in search of food they will dive for 1 – 2 minutes, however they have been observed holding their breath for up to 12 minutes (possibly longer) when necessary.
When they need to surface for air they keep a low profile only exposing the top of their head and their blowhole.
