🐬 TIL: A dolphin named Kelly figured out how to run a scam on her trainers. At the Institute for Marine Mammal Studies in Mississippi, dolphins got a fish for every piece of trash they turned in. Kelly noticed the payout was the same no matter the size, so she hid trash under a rock and tore off small pieces to redeem one at a time. Then she escalated. Turning in a stray seagull earned a bonus fish payout, so Kelly started saving one of her fish, using it as bait to lure gulls, and cashing in the bigger reward. She later taught the trick to her calf, and it spread through the pod until gull-baiting was, in the words of one account, a hot game among the dolphins. Trainers only found her stash when they drained the pool for repairs and discovered a pile of garbage hidden under the rocks. Kelly survived Hurricane Katrina and was relocated to the Bahamas, where she was still going strong in her 40s as of 2018.

Here's my namesake surfing through big waves out near the Riff Bank sandbank in the Inner Moray Firth. The underwater sandbanks are the other reason that the Inner Firth is designated a Special Area of Conservation, the first being the presence of resident Bottlenose dolphins, like big Charlie boy here. #Nature #Dolphins #Wildlife #Sea

Exhilarating captain's log entry from Monterey Bay where the captain and passengers of Sanctuary Cruises captures incredible video of a pod of Bigg's killer whales hunting 15 dolphins. High wire acrobatics etc. "Seeing a predation event of this scale is a stark reminder of the raw, trophic dynamics of Monterey Bay. While these encounters can be difficult to watch, they represent the natural ecological balance of a healthy, functioning marine sanctuary." https://www.sanctuarycruises.com/captains-log/entry-1784508111383/ #Marine #Wildlife #Monterey #Orcas #Dolphins

20230506 | the patagonia fjords filled with rainbows and dolphins as part of my Patagonia trip in 2023, I had the privilege of being on a small boat that launched us into the Chilean fjords of the Patagonia region. We had been in this spot for a while (it had been pouring down rain for a bit) and in addition to traveling up the fjords and riding a zodiac around, we did a lot of off-trail hiking. This area is so wild and untouched. Then, this rainbow was happening for literally hours. And then these dolphins started jumping around. Several folks were editing aboard and I was watching from the stern and captured this photo with my tele lens! It drips with the notion that anything is possible. #photography #landscape #landscapephotography #patagonia #dolphins #rainbow #fjord

Within the first few months of life, every bottlenose dolphin invents a unique whistle that becomes its name for the rest of its life — and other dolphins learn that whistle, remember it, and use it to call out to that specific individual, making bottlenose dolphins the first non-human species ever discovered to use personal names https://spacedaily.com/d-within-the-first-few-months-of-life-every-bottlenose-dolphin-invents-a-unique-whistle-that-becomes-its-name-for-the-rest-of-its-life-and-other-dolphins-learn-that-whistle-remember-it-and/ #nature #wildlife #dolphins
