"The proportion that die from fishing hasn't changed over the years. In fact some data from UK government surveys indicates that there has been a growth in the number of common dolphins."

The common dolphin can grow up to six feet in length and weigh up to 300lbs.

Agile creatures, dolphins can swim at speeds of up to 40 miles an hour.
