New Research Indicates: Dolphins Call Each Other by Name

This finding, coupled with the other research on dolphin speech being intelligent (ATS: Dolphin speech similar to human language), adds more validity to there being another sentient species sharing this planet with us.

If this is confirmed, then could this same approach and research be used if we ever detect an extraterrestrial signal....to decipher if its intelligent and/or a language?

Very cool.....

That's so damn cool.

How much longer until we realize that there are animals who are as smart as we are. Like Dolphins..

Thank for the info!

I made a thread about this earlier. It really is amazing, isn't it?

And no, I'm not fussing about search engines, nor should this thread get 404ed. It's a cool story, and the more who see it, the better.

I did search ATS for this, and even scrolled through at least 5 pages before posting. Sorry 'bout that, had I known, I would have posted a response there.

Oh, hon, I'm not fussing! The search engine doesn't always work. No worries, okay?

Such a neat story deserves two threads!
