The rough-toothed\u00a0dolphin gets its name from the thin vertical wrinkles that run down the length\u00a0of their teeth. They can be identified by their sloping head and long beak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the Azores,\u00a0rough-toothed dolphins are encountered only very rarely. In August 2010 a group\u00a0was sighted, the first time since 1995. The recent sighting was made south of\u00a0Pico Island by the team of Espa\u00e7o Talassa. During this rare\u00a0sighting almost 50 individuals were observed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
