Dolphins: Breaking the Code

Season 10 Episode 1001 | 26m 43s | CC

Through non-invasive in-water observation, Dr. Denise L. Herzing researches the dolphins’ social structure, behaviors and communication. Now modern technology is making it possible to correlate the dolphins’ sounds and behavior, bringing Herzing and her collaborators closer to decoding dolphin communication.

Additional funding was provided by Diver’s Direct, the Do Unto Others Trust, The Charles N. and Eleanor Knight Leigh Foundation, Tim Choate, Skip and Diane Day, Antoinette Paterakis Lambros and by Kelly Arnold.
