摘要：
A model for estimating the weight of dolphins is proposed by comparing the weights of dolphin kept in captivity with those in the wild. Consistent with the hypothesis, seasonality in dolphins weight was observed. Seasonal indices are obtained which reveal, average the weight of the dolphin varies in different months over a period of year.
