Fine-scale behaviour of bottlenose dolphins around gillnets [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2003 We studied the fine-scale behaviour of bottlenose dolphins Tursiops truncatus around gillnets in North Carolina, USA, during May and June 2002. We made observations from an overhead digital video camera, suspended from a helium-filled aerostat, tethered 70 m above a fishing vessel.
