Validation of aerial photogrammetry methods to measure body size, condition and mass in small cetaceans. [PDF]
Abstract figure legend Unoccupied aerial vehicle (UAV)‐based photogrammetry provides measurements equivalent to traditional hand measurements in bottlenose dolphins. Mass estimates derived from UAV measurements closely match the true body mass of live individuals.

Personality structure in bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus). [PDF]
Comparative studies can help identify selective pressures that contributed to species differences in the number and composition of personality domains. Despite being adapted to an aquatic lifestyle and last sharing a common ancestor with primates some 95 million years ago, bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) resemble nonhuman primate species in ...
