Long-beaked common dolphin to 60 small, sharp, interlocking teeth on each side of each jaw. They have more teeth than any other delphinids. The long-beaked common dolphin is a member of common dolphin genus, "Delphinus" within the dolphin family, Delphinidae in the cetaceans order. Until the mid-1990s, the different forms within "Delphinus" were not recognized as separate species, but were all considered members of the species "D. delphis". In 1994, Heyning and Perrin did research on these species and then Kingston and Rosel confirmed there were two separate species. Currently, the two recognized species of "Delphinus" are the short-beaked common dolphin ("D. delphis")
Creature animation Creature animation Creature animation is a specialised part of the animation process which involves bringing realistic animals and creatures to life. It is often distinguished from character animation, which involves breathing life into animated characters and creating the illusion of thought, feeling and emotion. Creature animators create highly realistic motion in animals or creatures; examples include the dinosaurs animated in the 1993 Steven Spielberg film "Jurassic Park". Since dinosaurs cannot be filmed or observed in motion, the animators studied other living creatures such as birds and lizards in order to re-create how a dinosaur might move and behave. Fours year
