Pink dolphins, also known as Amazon river dolphins or botos (scientific name: Inia geoffrensis), live in freshwater because they are specifically adapted to the unique environment of the Amazon, Orinoco, and other South American river systems. Their adaptation to freshwater life is due to several factors: Evolutionary History: These dolphins are believed to have evolved from marine ancestors that became isolated in river systems millions of years ago. Over time, they adapted to the freshwater environment, which now forms their natural habitat. River Systems' Abundance: The Amazon River and other similar rivers offer a rich food supply, including fish, crustaceans, and small aquatic animals, which supports the dolphins' dietary needs. Geographic Isolation: The geography of the Amazon and other river systems has created a unique ecosystem where the pink dolphins face less competition from other predators compared to ocean environments, allowing them to thrive. Physical Adaptations: Pink dolphins have adapted their body shape and physiology to navigate the complex, shallow, and sometimes flooded forests in the Amazon. They have flexible necks that allow them to maneuver around submerged tree trunks and vegetation. These factors combined have made freshwater environments ideal for pink dolphins, allowing them to thrive away from the more competitive and predator-filled oceans.
