*Culinary Trivia: Mahi-Mahi is a Hawaiian word indicating "strong-strong" for dolphin fish. The species is found in tropical and subtropical waters throughout the world. Dolphin fish are not to be confused with porpoises, which at times are also called dolphins. Dolphin fish (Mahi-Mahi) are cold-blooded members of the fish family, while porpoises are mammals and protected by law. Data Source: Sea Grant (University of Delaware College of Earth, Ocean & Environment).
