The Dolphin Communication Project (DCP) is 20 years old! John Anderson, Director of Terramar Productions and long-time collaborator and supporter of DCP, created (filmed, edited, produced) a celebratory film for DCP’s 20th anniversary!
Grab a beverage and some popcorn and join Kathleen, Kel, and our team of supporters, collaborators, and students as we remember the “early days” and share how we began, where we’ve been, and what we envision for the future! Thank you to everyone who has made the past 20 years possible!
By late June, I would have hoped for close to 30 days on the water, searching for the Atlantic spotted and bottlenose dolphins off Bimini. Nicole and I would have led two field courses, an ecotour and interacted with other tourists, all eager to experience the dolphins while DCP collected data. But. Well.
**Adopt-A-Wild-Dolphin PRINT kits received between now and 5 July will be processed and shipped ~7 July. Print kits ordered during this time will be provided with a digital adoption certificate before the kit is shipped. We apologize for any inconvenience, but appreciate your support.
Thank you to everyone who has been participating in our new webinar series, Dolphin Lessons and DCP Dives Deep into…Kathleen and Kel have enjoyed leading programs, but we also owe a big thank you to our guest presenters, Daisy Kaplan, PhD, Alexis Levengood, PhD, Annette Dempsey, Heather Hill, PhD, Teri Bolton, Nicole Danaher-Garcia, Justin Gregg, PhD…and the list is going to continue to grow!
We’ve really enjoyed the live Q&A portion of these webinars, but we’re also thrilled to have each program recorded.
