Скачать или смотреть Rare 4K footage of epimeletic behavior in bottlenose dolphins

Numerous species of cetaceans are known to engage in epimeletic (caregiving) behavior towards injured or distressed conspecifics. On 11 November 2021, a field survey was conducted by the Associação para a Investigação do Meio Marinho (AIMM) research team off the south coast of mainland Portugal. During one sighting, an adult dolphin was observed carrying a deceased calf. The behavior of that individual and the group was continuously monitored during the sighting, using digital cameras, underwater camera and a drone.
