Lateral Compartment Syndrome. A compartment syndrome occurs when the muscles swell too big for the surrounding sheath and can be acute or chronic. The lateral compartment of the lower leg is made up of the peroneus brevis and peroneus longus muscles, either of which can be the cause of a compartment syndrome. Compartments syndromes are either acute or chronic. An acute compartment syndrome is one that comes on suddenly and a chronic compartment syndrome has usually come on gradually over time.
Because the forty species of dolphins are so diverse, they range in size. The smallest of the dolphin species, Maui's Dolphin, is around 4 feet (1.2m) long and weighs around 90 lbs (40 kg). The largest dolphin species is the orca, or killer whale. Male orcas grow to about 25 feet in length and weigh about 19,000 pounds. Lifespan: Most dolphins live long lives. The bottlenose dolphin can live over 40 years, and the orca can live to be 70 or 80!
Bottlenose dolphins have the largest brain to body mass ratio of any mammal on Earth, sharing close ratios with those of humans and other great apes, which more than likely attributes to their incredibly high intelligence and emotional intelligence. The Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphin (T. aduncus) lives in the waters around India, northern Australia, South China, the Red Sea, and the eastern coast of Africa; the back is dark-grey and the belly is lighter grey or nearly white with grey spots.
