Thousands of Dolphins Form 'Mega Pod' in California's Monterey Bay - WATCH

Thousands of Dolphins Form 'Mega Pod' in California's Monterey Bay - WATCH
In places with a high abundance of food, pods can merge temporarily, forming a superpod; such groupings may exceed 1,000 dolphins.

In early September, a video surfaced at Monterey Bay Whale Watch's Evan Brodsky's Instagram of a dolphin "mega pod"-where thousands of these marine mammals school together in one massive pod that stretches from one end of Brodsky's video camera lens to the other.

Dolphin pod size varies wildly between place and individual species, but in general they range from between several dozen to a hundred, with membership being a fluid affair and inter-pod migration common.

In places with a high abundance of food, pods can merge temporarily, forming a superpod; such groupings may exceed 1,000 dolphins.

"On this day we saw thousands and thousands of long-beaked common dolphins spread out for miles! Literally every splash you see is a dolphin," Brodsky said, filming the march with his drone.
