GulfCet II Study: Cetacean Habitat in the Northern Gulf of Mexico Cetaceans were subdivided into five groups based on large body size and deep diving ability (sperm whales, category 2), intermediate body size and dietary preference for squid (squid-eaters, Category 3), phylogenetic relationship and occurrence in deep water (<200 m) habitats (bottlenose and Atlantic spotted dolphin Category 5). Cetacean sightings were grouped as follows: 1) Cetaceans (all species identified) 2) Sperm whales, 3) Squid-eaters (except for sperm whales).

Project Interlock The aim of the project is to gather details of encounters between humans and cetaceans globally, and develop an approach based on mutual respect and admiration for creatures that are, beyond doubt, our closest brain neighbours. But during the course of our studies we became aware of a special category of human/dolphin encounter: the situation where a lone dolphin spends an extended period of time around human settlements. From all this, I now reflect: if a person could become detached from a species-centred viewpoint and move to some hypothetical 'other' position, then review the documentation of human/cetacean approaches that have taken place in open-ended situations, perhaps some of my questions would be answered with quite profound implications. www.wadedoak.com /projectinterlock.htm   (3965 words)

Meghan Of the five fishing methods or gears known to kill cetaceans in the areas studied in the Philippines, purse seines are thought to have the most impact. An average of 8.6% of the total catch was made on "all other associations" which includes fishing on whales, whale sharks, dolphins, dead whales, the purse seiner itself, "etc." The yearly percentages for this category are as follows: 8.4% in 1988, 8.4% in 1989, and 9.0% in 1990. Japanese purse seine vessels had been already fishing in the area for several years when the exploratory charter trips indicated that there was potential for purse seiners operating in the eastern tropical Pacific to fish successfully in the western Pacific. swfsc.ucsd.edu /PRD/dsweb/lj-96-20/lj-96-20.htm   (3965 words)

Sea serpent complex He also bases his giant eel category on a giant "eel" larvae, which is now generally thought to be a normal sized relative of the eel called a halosaur. Heuvelmans made a big deal about primitive cetaceans having scale-like armor, yet this is now a discounted notion. However, he does accurately predict that some early whales would indeed look like otters (Ambulocetus). www.geocities.com /capedrevenger/seaserpentcomplex2.html   (1340 words)

Animal cognition - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This is not surprising since for the most part they also reject cognitive analyses of human behaviour, and it is perhaps a category error: in so far as the study of animal cognition exposes new behavioural phenomena, it simply provides more that a radical behaviourist must explain without using mentalistic language. Self-awareness, by this criterion, has been reported for chimpanzees and also for some other great apes, and some cetaceans, but not for monkeys. The success of cognitive psychology in addressing human mental processes, from the late 1950s on, led to a re-evaluation of the research paradigm, and researchers began to address animal mental processes from the opposite direction, by taking what is known about human mental processes and looking for evidence of comparable processes in other species. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Animal_cognition   (1479 words)
