What color are bottlenose dolphins?

Bottlenose dolphins are typically gray, but they can range in color from light gray to dark gray depending on the individual and their location.

Here's a breakdown:

* Dorsal (back) side: Usually darker gray, sometimes even bluish-gray

* Ventral (belly) side: Lighter gray, often almost white

* Fins and Flukes: Typically the same color as the dorsal side

Important note: There can be some variation within the species. Some dolphins may have a reddish-brown tint to their skin, especially in areas with warmer waters.
