It has become clear that they are 'cultural' animals. meaning that new types of behaviour can quickly he picked up by one dolphin from another. They have distinct personalities, a strong sense of self, and can think about the future. Studies on dolphin behaviour have highlighted that their communications are similar to those of humans and that they are brighter than chimpanzees.
