Visual Problem-Solving in a Bottlenose Dolphin
Science, 1964A captive 8-year-old dolphin, well adapted to contact with human beings, was tested by the discrimination method for underwater perception of visual forms or patterns. The animal successfully discriminated 21 of the 25 pairs of stimuli presented. After having learned a particular combination, the dolphin was immediately able to respond to different but

Quantitative Examination of the Bottlenose Dolphin Cerebellum
The Anatomical Record, 2013ABSTRACTNeuroanatomical research into the brain of the bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) has revealed striking similarities with the human brain in terms of size and complexity. However, the dolphin brain also contains unique allometric relationships. When compared to the human brain, the dolphin cerebellum is noticeably larger.

A DNA vaccine against dolphin morbillivirus is immunogenic in bottlenose dolphins
Veterinary Immunology and Immunopathology, 2007The immunization of exotic species presents considerable challenges. Nevertheless, for facilities like zoos, animal parks, government facilities and non-profit conservation groups, the protection of valuable and endangered species from infectious disease is a growing concern.
