13: Stress Hormones and Their Regulation in a Captive Dolphin Population
نویسندگان
چکیده
This research aids our understanding of how the stress-response operates in marine mammals by evaluating markers of stress in a captive dolphin population. This research effort will determine baseline levels of putative stress hormones and evaluate the functional consequences of increased stress in the bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) through the assessment of non-traditional biochemical markers.

متن کاملHow Studies of Wild and Captive Dolphins Contribute to our Understanding of Individual Differences and Personality
The study of individual differences in animals and humans has flourished in recent years. This work has revealed personality traits in a wide range of species, including dolphins. However, there are few systematic studies of dolphin personality despite many reasons to assume that personality plays an important role in dolphin behavior. Dolphins live in complex societies and demonstrate a broad ...
متن کاملSwimming with Captive Dolphins:
Dolphins have widespread contemporary appeal and anthropomorphic social representations of dolphins have fuelled a growing desire in tourist populations to seek interaction with them. This paper is concerned with the staged performance of swim-with dolphin interaction programmes in aquaria. Qualitative interviews with tourists who have swum with captive dolphins identified their immediate recol...
