Which of the following statements about the Ganga River Dolphin (Platanista gangetica) are true? 1. The Ganga River Dolphin, commonly known as Susu, is endemic to the Indian sub-continent and is also referred to as the Tiger of the Ganga. 2. It has a long thin snout, rounded belly, stocky body, and large flippers, with a slit similar to a blowhole on top of its head acting as a nostril. 3. Females are larger than males and give birth to one calf every two to three years. Calves have chocolate brown skin at birth, while adults have grey-brown smooth, hairless skin. 4. Ganges River dolphins, restricted to freshwater, use ultrasonic waves for hunting and navigating. Their unique swimming behavior aids in finding food, and they emit the 'Susu' sound while surfacing to breathe.
