The highlands of the New York Mountains of Mojave National Preserve are the only known habitat of terrestrial cetaceans, including the elusive mojave rock dolphin. Over the past few years I have returned to this secret remote area in my study of of these unique creatures. Like their marine cousins, mojave rock dolphins are very intelligent and playful.
