Dolphin mothers put a lot of energy into their calves, but as social animals, what impact does the presence of calves have on the group? In a newly published, peer-reviewed paper, DCP team members investigated whether the presence of pre-weaned calves in a social group influenced activity level and engagement among group members, including but not limited to the mother(s). Join us and learn straight from the study’s lead author, DCP’s own Kathleen Dudzinski, PhD.
Dr. Dudzinski is the founder/director of DCP and has spent more than three decades studying dolphin behavior and communication in multiple locations from the underwater perspective.
Deep Dives are geared toward ages 14+, but all are welcome.
