The Amazon River Dolphin lives in a tropical rainforest and is the smartest of all river dolphins. They have large snouts with bristle hairs on the end for finding food at the bottom of the river, are able to rotate flippers in different directions making them great for swimming into flooded areas, and have back teeth designed for crushing and pointy front teeth for chewing and biting prey. After millions of years, the Amazon River Dolphin is critically endangered and is living in the only tundra left in the world due to global warming and is adapted to the new environment. It now has a body structure great for swimming, great eyesight for finding prey, horns for cracking ice to fulfill hunger, a snout for sniffing out food, a tail and flippers helpful for navigating in water and webbed feet to resist the cold while walking on ice.
