Dolphins are carnivores; they eat other animals. Dolphins eat a variety of fish, squid, shrimps, jellyfish and octopuses. The types of fish and other creatures dolphins eat depends on the species of dolphin, where the dolphins live and the wildlife that shares their habitats. There are more than forty species of dolphin and they live in environments ranging from fresh water rivers, estuaries, coastal waters to deep sea open oceans.
Some kids do get recurrent strep infections, thanks to a combination of bad luck and anatomy. Here's what happens: Having an infection often creates some immunity against the bacteria that caused the illness. But the tonsils of a child who has had strep sometimes seem to attract the bacteria instead. When your child has a strep infection, his tonsils and adenoids enlarge. Instead of getting smaller after the infection has been cleared up, the swelling sometimes remains, leaving the tonsils vulnerable.
Group A strep causes 15 percent to 30 percent of sore throats in children, Dr. Kaplan and Dr. Bisno reported in the September issue of Mayo Clinic Proceedings. The illness is most common in school-age children as old as 15. Strep infections are less common in adults, who are also far less likely than children to develop a serious complication like rheumatic fever if a strep infection goes untreated. Strep bacteria are shed from the nose and throat of infected people and easily spread to others.
