My First Time Seeing Txuci River Dolphins

I remember the exact moment when I arrived the Amazon and was greatly surprised by a huge group of Txuci’s fishing. I can’t imagine such a creature that was so magical.

They have such acrobatic movements and always seem to be smiling.

It was a magical moment when I noticed how they worked together to catch the school fish, how they were teaching the younger ones how to fish and how docile and friendly they seem to be.
