There are many ways to compare animals but one interesting way is to see how they stack up in the animal kingdom. Here are some questions to consider when trying to determine which is better swan or dolphin:
1. What is the lifespan of each animal?
2. What is the intelligence level of each animal?
3. What is the natural habitat of each animal?
4. What is the size of each animal?
5. What is the diet of each animal?
Let’s take a closer look at each animal to see how they compare.
Swan
1. The lifespan of a swan is 10-12 years in the wild and up to 20 years in captivity.
2. The intelligence level of a swan is considered to be high. They have been known to solve complex problems and even use tools.
3. The natural habitat of a swan is freshwater lakes and ponds.
4. The average size of a swan is 6-7 feet long and weighs 15-20 pounds.
5. The diet of a swan consists of aquatic plants and small animals.
Dolphin
1. The lifespan of a dolphin is 20-30 years in the wild and up to 50 years in captivity.
2. The intelligence level of a dolphin is considered to be one of the highest of all animals. They are highly social and have been known to use tools and cooperative hunting strategies.
