From early days of our evolution, communication has been a key factor in our survival and success as a species. Our ability to cooperate that has enabled us to rise to the top of the food chain on earth.

The ocean covers 70 percent of Earth’s surface, provides the essential conditions for all species on our planet.

It is home for hundreds of thousands of diverse marine life.

For those who have mastered the art of communication, it has given them the power to work together in groups, form strong bonds, and conquer challenges.

In the shallow or deep waters of the oceans, a species stands out for its playful spirit and remarkable intelligence. They have mastered the art of communication in a way that is truly unique... The Dolphins!

With over 40 species worldwide, these intelligent and adaptable animals spend their entire lives in the ocean and some even venture into rivers.

They live in a world of cooperation and form alliances to increase their chances of survival. Dolphins use a variety of sounds like clicks, whistles, and body language to communicate with each other. These sounds help them organize themselves and work together to hunt and protect their young. They form strong bonds, and often living together for decades.

They have a sophisticated form of identify each other, a specific whistle pattern unique to each animal that they use to communicate with one another. They are able to remember the signature whistles of their friends and enemies for up to 20 years, a truly amazing social memory.

The freedom to join, split up, and rejoin different pods is a unique characteristic of these intelligent creatures. Sometimes, multiple pods will come together to form a super pod, with numbers exceeding 1,000.

When it's time to eat, they use a sonar communication called echolocation, much like bats, to find their prey and navigate in the dark. While some might say they have no natural predators in their own environment, different larger sharks may prey on small dolphins when they are hungry. But even the most fierce of sharks should think twice before approaching a pod, as these smart animals are brutal fighters and will protect their own to the end.

The pink dolphins of the Amazon River basin hold a special place in legend. It is said that at night, the pink dolphins transform into tall and handsome men and charm the wives and daughters of Amazonian villages. Whether this is true or not, it adds to the mystique and romance surrounding these magnificent creatures.

Just like humans, dolphins play an important role in the ocean ecosystem. They help maintain a balance in the food chain and their presence can even improve the health of their surroundings.

But unfortunately this harmony can be shattered by the harsh reality of human actions, such as over-fishing, pollution, and climate change. These disruptions put immense pressure on the delicate creatures of the ocean, threatening their very existence.

Oceans provide food, regulate the climate, and produce about 70% of the oxygen in the atmosphere through photosynthesis by phytoplankton. Rivers play a major role in the water cycle by carrying water to the ocean, transporting nutrients across the planet, and supporting many forms of life.

Let's make sure we're giving dolphins and all marine species the chance to continue their amazing underwater conversations for generations to come. After all, a world without the sounds of dolphins communicating, just wouldn't be the same!
