Pink Dolphins are Cetaceans
All Pink dolphins belong to the cetacean family. The
Cetacean order is broken down into sub-orders. In other words, the entire
cetacean family is broken down into smaller families.
The first sub-order is the Mysticeti family, which is
made up of Baleen Whales. These whales capture prey by straining water through
a series of baleen plates in their mouths. Included in the Mysticeti family is
the Balaenopteridae family, which is made up of Minke Whales, Sei Whales,
Bryde's Whales, Blue Whales, Fin Whales, and the Humpback Whales. The next
family of cetaceans in the Mysticeti group is the Balaenidae family. The
Bowhead Whales, Northern Right Whales, Southern Right Whales, and Pygmy Right
Whales make up this group, and they are characterized by their habit of being
slow-moving, continuous filter feeders. Still in the Mysteiceti group, the next
family is the Eschrichtidae family. This family is comprised of the Gray Whale.
