Over 1,500 Risso's dolphins were spotted in a rare "super pod" off California's Carmel Bay.

Over 1,500 Risso's dolphins, typically traveling in groups of 10 to 30, were spotted in a rare "super pod" off California's Carmel Bay. The marine biologists, initially tracking gray whales, were amazed by the dolphins' playful behaviors, including breaching and tail-slapping. The Monterey coastline, with its deep underwater canyon, is ideal for spotting dolphins as it draws them closer to shore than other parts of California.
