Dolphins Call Each Other by Name

by Jennifer Viegas

Bottlenose dolphins call out the specific names of loved ones when they become separated, a study finds.

Other than humans, the dolphins are the only animals known to do this, according to the study, published in the latest Proceedings of the Royal Society B. The big difference with bottlenose dolphins is that these communications consist of whistles, not words.

Earlier research found that bottlenose dolphins name themselves, with dolphins having a “signature whistle” that encodes other information. It would be somewhat like a human shouting, “Hey everybody! I’m an adult healthy male named George, and I mean you no harm!”

The new finding is that bottlenose dolphins also say the names of certain other dolphins…

“a Witch is born out of the true hungers of her time (…) I am a child of the poisonous wind that copulated with the River on an oil-slick, garbage infested midnight. I turn about on my own parentage. I inoculate against those very biles that brought me to light. I am a serum born of venoms. I am the antibody of all Time.”

― Long After Midnight, Ray Bradburry

This is my first tattoo done by Saira Hunjan @ Good Times Tattoo in Shoreditch- London UK. (It was a really nice studio and I would definitely recommend it- all the artists they have are fantastic )

This is a picture from the day after it was done.

Saira is one of my favourite artists and I had been on her waiting list for around 2 years when I got an email indicating that she had actually quit tattooing and was only finishing work in progress and I was absolutely heart broken but last week I got a call saying I was still on their back up list and they had a cancellation in 2 days time and would I like the appointment.. I jumped at the chance ( I was having a terrible week and actually cried a little with happiness ). I love Saira’s work so in the phone conversation I had with her I just told her I wanted a patterned heart and let her run with it. Although I would love her to do all my work I respect her decision to move away from tattooing because.. well I guess you have to follow your heart.
I was really nervous and expected a lot of pain- I guess the tattooing process effects everyone differently and Saira happens to be really light handed to so practically didn’t feel a thing. I’m trying to make sure I take good care of it.

I am so incredibly in love with this tattoo.

These “mammatus clouds” were photographed above Hastings, Nebraska, after a destructive thunderstorm in May 2005. Although their formation is not completely understood, these rare clouds usually develop at the base of a thunderstorm, and appear lumpy because of instabilities and temperature differences between sinking and rising air.
