The Experience of Self in the Bottlenose Dolphin

Consciousness and Cognition, 1995
Marten and Psarakos have presented some evidence which suggests that objective self-awareness and possibly representations of self may characterize the dolphins' experience of self. Their research demonstrates the possibility of similarities in the sense of self between primate species and dolphins, although whether dolphins have subjective self ...

Congenital Scoliosis of a Bottlenose Dolphin

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2011
There are many reports of cetaceans with deformed and twisted bodies. Skeletal pathology descriptions have shown changes to axial skeletons because of injury, trauma, or disease. We present a bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) that shows characteristic patterns of congenital skeletal deformity, including malformed vertebrae, ribs, and sternum ...

Cognition, 1984
Abstract The ability of two bottlenosed dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) to understand imperative sentences expressed in artificial languages was studied. One dolphin (Phoenix) was tutored in an acoustic language whose words were computer-generated sounds presented through an underwater speaker.

Superalliance of bottlenose dolphins

Nature, 1999
It is quite common to find several levels of nested male alliances in human political organization1, 2 but these are extremely rare in other species3. Yet we found that male bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops sp.) at Shark Bay, Western Australia, form two levels of alliance within a social network of more than 400 individuals.

Visual Problem-Solving in a Bottlenose Dolphin

Science, 1964
A 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

A Stingray Spine in the Scapula of a Bottlenose Dolphin

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1997
A stingray spine was found lodged in the scapula of a deceased 272 cm, male bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) from South Carolina (USA) following skeletal preparation, nearly 6 mo after necropsy. No external puncture wound, internal bruising, or laceration of muscle tissue surrounding the scapula was evident during necropsy of the animal ...
