Bottlenose dolphins that forage with artisanal fishermen whistle differently

Abstract: Acoustic communication is a taxonomically widespread phenomenon, crucial for social animals. We evaluate social sounds from bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) of Laguna, southern Brazil, whose social structure is organized around a cooperative foraging tactic with artisanal fishermen. This tactic involves stereotyped and coordinated behaviour by dolphins and fishermen and is performed by a subset of the dolphin population, splitting it into two distinct social communities. We compared the acoustic parame… Show more

“…Because the soundscape of a given environment may change over time, variations in dolphin whistles may be the response to varying background noise levels, for example, to facilitate signal transmission and have an effective communication (Ansmann et al, ; May‐Collado & Wartzok, ; Papale, Gamba, Perez‐Gil, Martin, & Giacoma, ). The changes in vocal behavior may also depend on factors, including group behavior and the occurrence of anthropogenic stressors (Gridley et al, ; Hawkins & Gartside, ; La Manna, Manghi, Pavan, Lo Mascolo, & Sarà, ; Marley, Salgado, & C.P., Erbe, C. and Parnum, I.M., ; Rako‐Gospić & Picciulin, ; Romeu, Cantor, Bezamat, Simões‐Lopes, & Daura‐Jorge, ). The features, such as group size and composition, are also known to influence the acoustic properties of whistles and contribute to their variation (Heiler et al, ; Quick & Janik, ).…”

“…Finally, T. truncatus whistles usually occur at frequencies up to 30 kHz [ 59 , 63 ]. Specifically, in the T. t. gephyreus population sampled, less than 1% of whistles had part of the fundamental frequency above 24 kHz [ 64 ]. Therefore, we can conclude that all sounds produced by T. truncatus can be recorded using a frequency of 48 kHz.…”

“…Both fishers and dolphins seems to benefit from this interaction via an increase in their catch (Simões‐Lopes, Fábian & Menegheti, 1998). For the dolphin population, this interaction has several implications, influencing spatial (Cantor, Simões‐Lopes & Daura‐Jorge, 2018) and social behaviour (Daura‐Jorge et al ., 2012), population parameters (Bezamat et al ., 2018) and acoustic behaviour; individuals who frequently interact with fishers whistle differently from those who tend to forage independently, suggesting a functional role of sounds in the development and execution of this foraging tactic (Romeu et al ., 2017).…”
