DOLPHINS OF A WOUNDED SEA http://www.dolphinbiology.org/mareferito/ in Italian, with English subtitles ABSTRACT — This 20-min marine conservation documentary features research on dolphins in the Mediterranean Sea as seen from the eyes of a biologist who has been studying the animals for two decades. She passionately reports her experience, methods, findings and hindrances. The main focus is on common bottlenose dolphins in the north-western Adriatic Sea. Here, the dolphins have adapted to foraging behind three types of trawlers, and display a variety of behavioral specializations that allow them to persist within an area of high human encroachment. The documentary raises awareness on marine and global conservation issues, emphasizing the importance of personal commitment. While it is a high resolution (4K) video, quality will depend on internet bandwidth. - - - - Giovanni Bearzi <http://www.dolphinbiology.org/people/giovanni_bearzi.htm> _______________________________________________ MARMAM mailing list MARMAM@lists.uvic.ca https://lists.uvic.ca/mailman/listinfo/marmam
