The Pink Dolphin is a legend of Brazilian folklore. The legend is particularly popular in the Amazon region of Brazil. Legend often narrates that, during festive nights, especially during the São João festivities, dolphins emerge from the rivers and transform into young, attractive men. They wear white clothes and hats to hide the tops of their heads, which remain pink. These disguised dolphins attend parties, dance and seduce women. The legend includes many accounts of pregnant women who claim to have been seduced by these male-transformed porpoises. In some versions of the legend, these women marry the dolphins and only discover the truth when the pink dolphin returns to the river. Hence the custom of saying, when a woman has a child from an unknown father, that he is "son of the dolphin".
