Dolphins can maintain vigilant behavior through echolocation for 15 days without interruption or cognitive impairment. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 In dolphins, natural selection has developed unihemispheric sleep where alternating hemispheres of their brain stay awake. This allows dolphins to maintain consciousness in response to respiratory demands of the ocean. Unihemispheric sleep may also allow

Long-term correlations in the surface behavior of dolphins [PDF]
, 2006 Here we study the sequences of surface behavioral patterns of dolphins (Tursiops sp.) and find long-term correlations. We show that the long-term correlations are not of a trivial nature, i.e.
