4K | 精彩海豚表演 | 喬治亞水族館 Powerful Dolphin Presentation | Georgia Aquarium

Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on. Dolphins have been captivating the hearts and minds of humans for thousands of years. The impact of these animals stretches around the globe and in time itself. From ancient Greece to the present day. From the waters of the Indo-Pacific to the Atlantic. People around the world have made connections with these incredible marine mammals. 37 species of dolphin call the waterways of our planet home. From the Mighty Wharf to the 3-foot Hector's Dolphin. Dolphin distribution is vast, with populations in the Mediterranean Sea, off the coast of Africa, and right here in the coastal waters of Georgia. This is Destination Dolphin. As we embark on this expedition, we aim to discover dolphins in a fresh and exhilarating way. My name is Megan, and I cannot wait to dive deeper into the world of dolphins with all of you. Now we won't be traveling alone, so it's time to introduce you to a few of my friends. Please say hello to Chris! We have Sophie and Taylor! And now we'll introduce you to a few of our bottlenose. First up, direct your attention towards the left-hand side of the habitat. She is our youngest dolphin. This is Coquina! Next up, they're one of our dynamic duos. Coming over to give you a dolphin-style wave. Hello! This is Lily and Loxie! Last but certainly not least, she is one of our highest-flying robot stars. Soaring into the spotlight, this is Luna! The worlds inhabited by humans and dolphins are closer and unique, and there are many similarities that bring us together. We are both highly intelligent and social animals. Like us, coastal dolphins live in a family that has 4 pods, typically consisting of 2 to 15 members. As the pod grows, a new addition will take up to 12. They are truly distinct, just like you, and leave an indelible mark on the world around them. And she comes in at 30 years old! This structure is typically led by a matriarchal female, and Roxie here serves our dominant female role for us here in our family, right? Now they do this on the top of their head, just like that. Good job! The vocalizations are produced as well. If you listen closely, you might be able to hear what Roxie sounds like. This is a tribute to just them, and this is Signature Whistle. Now this Signature Whistle is shortly after being born, and they can use the Signature Whistle in order to fly even further if they were to get sick. With a day full of learning, but plenty of time to play too, our dolphins receive well-rounded care that affects the mind and body. But our reach goes further than these aquarium walls. Hello everyone! My name is Taylor, and join me! Old question, who knows more about the bottlenose dolphin? Is it the adults? Or, is it the kids? She's actually the matriarch. Her name is Phoebe. So what you're going to do is you're going to put two hands out, and you're going to give her a nice wave hello. Meet Phoebe and Pupala! First question. So every single morning, they step up on their animals. T, you are exactly correct. And since you did so well on your first question, I'm going to give you a nice restaurant-quality carrot to go ahead and toss into Phoebe's mouth. And you'll notice, even though she has those teeth, she actually swallows her fish completely whole. You guys definitely started to sound strong up there, but that was a pretty easy question to ask me. So, I have the adults down here. I think you can represent maybe just a little bit tougher. What do you say, Phoebe? Alright, my question for you is, how many teeth does the bottlenose dolphin have? What do you think? What's your guess? 50! You started at 101, down to 50! Actually right the first time, Dolphins have between 72 to 104 dolphin-shaped teeth. And unlike people, dolphins only get one. Okay, Elias, so part of our job of being a dolphin trainer is being able to form very special teeth. You can actually reach out and touch Phoebe. Reinforce, re-collect. Tyler, reinforce it. Excellent. You can keep touching her. What do you think she feels like? A little, like, soft, like rubber. We've had some, sort of like rubber, yeah. We've had some crazy answers over the years.
