Summer Learning Journey|Taking Action|Protecting The Most Vulnerable - Fact or Fiction?

1. Maui Dolphins only manufacture a calf every 2 to 4 years.
2. They have a lifespan of 25 years.
3. Females evolve up to 2 meters long.
4. Maui and Hector dolphins look similar to each other.
5. They can see by sound.
6. Maui dolphins have the same fin as normal dolphins.

This week for activity 2, day 3 of week 4 of Summer Learning Journey, we had to post three true facts we learnt about Maui dolphins. We also had to think of three false facts. It is your duty to figure out the facts that are false or true. This activity was worth 4 points, which I enjoyed doing.

  2. Kia ora Sakina,

    Georgia here, again, from the Kaikohekohe (Northland) cluster! You will be seeing me and Dani floating around your cluster today, because you guys are so busy. It is awesome to see how much effort and enthusiasm you guys are putting into your blog posts, keep this up!

    I have to agree with Alex, you have done a great job with this activity! I also like how you have organised your work. I believe that learning about the Maui dolphin can really help us raise our awareness, also sharing the facts that you have learnt to others! Okay after researching this is what I believe is true or false:
    True- Maui ‘produce’ a calf every 2-4 years
    False- They only live up to 20 years
    False- They grow up to 1.7 meters with the male dolphins being a bit smaller than that
    True- They are identical, but are genetically & physically different
    True- They communicate with clicks
    False- They have a rounded fin

    Let me know if this is correct! Looking forward to reading more of your blogs.

    Blog you later!

  3. Hi Sakina,
    Great job on completing this activity! I liked how you joined your real facts and your true or false facts together, it really made it harder to see which ones were true. I find it interesting that dolphins can use echolocation to find and locate food. If you could use echolocation, would you?
