Why it’s my favorite
For this final section I was deciding between two other animals, the Hedgehog and the Narwhale. I went with Dolphins because I liked them before the other two. Dolphins are my favorite because of their playful nature with bth other dolphins as well as with humans. I would always see Dolphins in media when I was younger and was always excited to learn about them.
