@maliya_marine: #seacreaturefacts Dolphins Only Sleep with Half of Their Brain! Dolphins and whales sleep in an unusual way. Called “unihemispheric slow-wave sleep,” it basically means that they sleep with only half of their brain. When a dolphin goes to sleep, it shuts down one hemisphere of its brain and closes the opposite eye. This allows the dolphin to monitor what’s going on around them and to regulate breathing. #marinebiology #marinebiologist #foryoupage #sealife #fyp #protecttheocean #marinelife #beautifulcreatures #dolphin #dolphinpod #evilbutbeautiful #sealife #seaanimals
