Name: Indus River Dolphin

Description: The Indus River dolphin weighs about 80 - 90 kg (180 - 200 lb) and has a length of 2 - 2.5 m (6.6 - 8.2').

Fun Facts: Its original habitat included the Indus River from the Himalayan foothills to the estuarine portion of the river leading into the Arabian Sea. It is essentially sightless, probably because the water it lives in is so salty that vision would not be effective, and its eyes have degenerated.
