May 8, 2006 Dolphins give themselves "names"—distinctive whistles that they use to identify each other, new research shows. Scientists say it's the first time wild animals have been shown to call out their own names.
What's more, the marine mammals can recognize individual names even when the sound is produced by an unfamiliar voice. Bottlenose dolphins appear to develop so-called signature whistles as infants (just for kids: bottlenose dolphin fun facts). The idea that they use these whistles to identify each other was first proposed in 1991 after individuals were heard to make their own unique sounds. "The challenge was to show experimentally that the animals can use these independent voice features as signature whistles," said Vincent Janik of the Sea Mammal Research Unit at the University of St.
Andrews in Scotland. Janik is the lead author of a study on the dolphin whistles to be published tomorrow in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Listening Dolphins. Savita Bhabhi - The sexual adventures of a Hot Indian Bhabhi. XXX ELF XXX SexCraft ( adult game)
