Conservationists occasionally light forests on fire to control wild fires. By occasionally burning material (like leaves, branches, etc), those materials cannot build up and cause large and uncontrollable fires later.
Decreased surface-to-volume ratio. The dolphin's fusiform body shape and reduced limb size decrease the amount of surface area exposed to the external environment.
Increased insulation. Dolphins deposit most of their body fat into a thick layer of blubber.
