NO, NO, NO!!! Mahi mahi, also known as dolphin, is not a mammal!
It is a fish, a real honest-to-goodness fish. In fact, it has
quite a reputation as a sport fish besides being some of the
best eating around. 

If you go out and look in some fishing books under dolphin you
will see a picture of a fish with absolutely no resemblance to
Flipper.

Just because it's called the same thing, doesn't mean it IS the
same thing. Besides, the mammals are usually referred to as porpoises,
not dolphins, even if some of them are named dolphins(like the
bottle-nosed dolphin).
