Searching for Language in Dolphins – Cracking the Code | Stories of Impact | Denise Herzing

Understanding language is a major obstacle in recognizing the diversity of intelligence across species on Earth. Do other species besides humans have language? How would we recognize a nonhuman language if it existed? And how might we begin to not only assess the structure and patterns of signals, but interpret the meaning of nonhuman communication signals?

Denise Herzing's project seeks to find linguistic richness in the vocalizations of dolphins. This would represent nothing less than a paradigm shift in the way we understand diverse intelligence.
