Choose two supporting details.

- A dolphin mother also feeds her baby milk.
- Fish and birds are mammals.
Choose one main idea.
- Dolphins breathe oxygen.
- Dolphins are mammals..
- Dolphins are reptiles
- Dolphins live in the ocean.
Dolphins are mammals that live in the ocean. Mammals are different than fish, reptiles or birds. As a mammal, dolphins breathe oxygen, even though they live in water. Because they are mammals, a dolphin mother gives birth to a live baby, unlike reptiles and birds who lay eggs. A dolphin mother also feeds her baby milk like other mammals.
Circle the main idea and underline two supporting details.
