Parallels of human language in the behavior of bottlenose dolphins
Linguistic Frontiers, 2022 Abstract Dolphins exhibit striking similarities with humans. Here we review them with the help of quantitative linguistics and information theory. Various statistical laws of language that are well-known in quantitative linguistics, i.e.

Unihemispheric sleep deprivation in bottlenose dolphins [PDF]
Journal of Sleep Research, 1992 SUMMARY Unihemispheric and bihemispheric sleep deprivation were performed in bottlenose dolphins. One brain hemisphere was capable of being deprived of delta (0.5‐3.0 Hz) sleep in the former condition. Here, an increase in sleep pressure was observed during sleep deprivation in the deprived hemisphere.

Social and vocal complexity in bottlenose dolphins
Trends in Neurosciences, 2022 Bottlenose dolphins are highly social, renowned for their vocal flexibility, and possess highly enlarged brains relative to their body size. Here, we discuss some of the defining features of bottlenose dolphin social and vocal complexity and place this in the context of their cognitive evolution.

Fatal Systemic Morbillivirus Infection in Bottlenose Dolphin, Canary Islands, Spain
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2014 A systemic morbillivirus infection was diagnosed postmortem in a juvenile bottlenose dolphin stranded in the eastern North Atlantic Ocean in 2005. Sequence analysis of a conserved fragment of the morbillivirus phosphoprotein gene indicated that the virus
