Spinner dolphins, Stenella longirostris, are playful cetaceans of the sub-order Odontocetes. They typically forage for deep water squid and fish by echolocation during the night. During the day, they rest and play near the coast in pods, occasionally leaping out of the water while quickly rotating.
