By 1960, despite decades of whaling in the Southern Ocean, only three specimens had been recovered. As of 2010, only 6 complete specimens had been examined.
This one was spotted at sea between the Falkland Islands and South Georgia.
One thing is for sure: the hourglass dolphin is one of the most majestic and awe inspiring creatures I've ever seen.
