• After studying dolphins, people built submarines to move quickly in the ocean and stay under the water for a long time. 

• Dolphins move quickly in the water not only to be safe from danger. 

• Dolphins use their tails to go faster and their fins to change direction. 

• Whales and dolphins look like fish, but they’re really mammals! 

• While many other animals, such as chimpanzees and dolphins, live in groups and communicate, scientists don’t know for certain whether they can talk and share complicated ideas. 

• He notices that the dolphin's bright colors afford a warning to his enemies, and give them a chance of escape. 

• He tapped out a distress call which the dolphins could relay to the swimmers. 

• I tell you there's a shark swimming in these waters—a shark so big that by comparison Port Royal Tom would seem like a dolphin. 

• The dolphin is called, from the swiftness of its motion, the arrow of the sea. 

• We had too much reason to fear, for scarce was the sun set when we saw about twenty men from a desert island advancing towards us, each on the back of a large dolphin. 

• The latter seems to be a feature of dolphins and other cetaceans (exploited in oceanaria shows, where two performers leap and dive together).

• There was no program for the labeling of shrimp products which are turtle friendly, as is the case with dolphin friendly tuna.

• Thus, the dolphin developed a broad concept of imitation.

• The extremely divergent nature of these features from that of other mammalian brains continues to be the centerpoint of active debate about dolphin intelligence.

• It may be premature to restrict the phenomenon of culture to humans, after reflecting on the brain and behavioural evidence for social evolution in dolphins.

• We have suggested several aspects of the natural history of whales and dolphins that may have promoted the evolution of these complex cultures.

• If dolphins are capable of collaborative learning, based on experimental evidence of social cognition, cultural learning may prove not to be a uniquely human phenomenon.

• Research on a broader range of species has been limited by an availability bias favoring the bottlenose dolphin.

• Quantitative tools for comparing animal communication systems: information theory applied to bottlenose dolphin whistle repertoires.

• Finally, there is some confusion among the commentators regarding whether individual learning under different ecological conditions could account for foraging specialisations in bottlenose dolphins.

• It has been a curious phenomenon to trace the popular perception of dolphins over the last few decades.

• The most obvious example is the beach favored by the beaching dolphins.

• This is also true for the "sponging" behavior of dolphins.

• One possibility is suggested by the way in which the dolphins' matching behaviours appear reminiscent of synchronised swimming, where two individuals perform similar acts simultaneously.

• These abilities appear to be reserved for humans, great apes, and possibly, dolphins.
