00:00Over millennia and across cultures, whales and dolphins are seen as guardians and guides
00:29to humans at sea. We know them to be intelligent, altruistic, and emotionally aware of each
00:36other and us. Before even our oldest ancestor, the first of the great apes was born. Cetaceans
00:46were the most intellectually and sensitively complex creatures the planet had ever seen.
00:59Cetaceans, and for us, they're the spirit, the voice of the ocean. Actually, Cetaceans,
01:13the world over, are a lot like humans. There is so much we don't know yet, and I feel that
01:17we're only really scraping the surface of their intelligence.
01:26They are the ocean souls, guides and protectors, here to lead us towards a more connected future.
01:34What if their intelligence and sense of family is not only linked to our origins, but also
01:48to our future?
01:52What if whales, dolphins, humans, and all life on Earth are meant to depend on each other,
02:00to co-exist and learn from one another, to see and support each other as one family?
02:12Maybe our very survival depends on extending our sense of family across species and around
02:20the world.
02:21The co-exist.
02:34To know.
02:38I know.
02:45So.
02:48Whales and dolphins build family bonds through play, language, touch, sharing food, teaching
03:17and raising their young, nursing their sick, and caring for one another, just as we do.
03:27We see compassion and awareness reflected so clearly in our underwater relatives.
03:44It's hard not to see something profoundly familiar in the bond between a whale mother and her calf.
03:56Even in silence, it's easy to recognize the joy from a loved one's touch.
04:03There is a special tenderness in a whale's embrace, an unlimited attention.
04:13The feeling exists beyond any language.
04:18As humans, we call it love.
04:35Whales and dolphins demonstrate care for one another through touch, sound and passionate play.
04:51Each species has their own unique language of affection.
05:05Courting humpback pairs rest on the ocean floor in complete stillness, nose to nose.
05:17Dolphin species, including orcas, show affection in an energetic and enthusiastic way.
05:25They will even make friendly physical contact with other species.
05:31At times, dolphins seek out mates based on which males are the most popular among their social groups, showing that affection and friendliness are highly
06:01valued qualities and valued qualities in pods that are bonded by social care and love, not just genetic relationships.
06:17A mother can carry its calf's small carcass over a thousand miles as if she wouldn't accept the loss of her child.
06:29What I find astonishing is that anybody ever questions whether other creatures feel pain in the same way that we do.
06:43They can't feel what we feel.
06:45They can't feel what we feel.
06:47And it extends not just to physical pain like being stabbed or otherwise wounded.
06:55It can wound your heart.
06:59There's also examples of J-35, a southern resident killer whale in the Pacific Northwest.
07:15She gave birth to one of her calves and the calf lived for 30 minutes.
07:20Sadly, the calf died.
07:21For 17 days after that, she carried around her calf on her nose, in her teeth, on her rostrum.
07:29For 17 days, it was called the tour of grief.
07:32It's really hard to be a scientist and not see that as an emotion, not see it as mourning.
07:38I think that's where our scientists sometimes need to humanise that in the point that they do have emotions.
07:53When these close family bonds are broken by death or capture, they call out in panic,
08:03searching for the relatives that make them feel safe.
08:07Even after decades in captive confinement, orca and dolphins continue to call out to the families they've once lost.
08:24Whales and dolphins have suffered greatly at the hands of humans.
08:30And yet, when wild whales are approached with calm and respect, they view us with patience, curiosity and compassion.
08:47Whales carry the wisdom of memory.
08:49Many cetitians living today have suffered anger, sadness and the loss of a relative to hunting or entanglement.
09:02Yet, they seem to view us with great forgiveness, beyond our human capacity to understand.
09:29Dolphins clearly express their joy while doing leaps and spins with visible exuberance.
09:44The more you see them and diving with them hundreds of hours, being in the water with the dolphins, every time it's different.
10:05Some days are really surprising that you see, for example, when they are playing football with a puffer fish and they are together and it's actually kind of teamwork when they balance poor puffer fish in the water.
10:33We have such a strong emotional interest in these magnificent animals.
10:57Because their need for emotional connection so closely mirrors our own.
11:04When we witness their grief and fear, their joy and affection, we have a chance to remember our own ocean souls.

12:13communication is a matter of survival it is how we ask for our needs met when we cannot meet them
12:29ourselves as highly intelligent species many cetaceans live and love in family groups depending
12:39on each other for protection food and comfort even more than we do it is communication that makes
12:51social survival possible without it each of us human and animal would be completely isolated within our
13:07own experience language allows us to bond build and thrive together the greatest skill that cetaceans
13:24have in terms of how they communicate with each other is not just the fact that they can communicate
13:28across huge distances some species but also the way that they transmit information about the world
13:34around them the three-dimensional world around them and effectively what we're seeing what we're
13:40learning as the years go by is that cetaceans have abilities which to humans are basically
13:47super sensory things that we could never replicate but things that we're learning that these animals
13:52use to understand and exist in this very hostile alien environment things that have evolved over
13:58the course of about 50 million years or so whales and dolphins rely on language and sound communication in an
14:13even bigger way hearing is their most critical sense and the basis of their daily survival
14:27cetacean sonic communication is more important than human sight they cannot navigate without the listening and
14:38transmitting abilities and transmitting abilities of sound
14:44on s'est aperçu que les cachalots du clan d'irène gueule tordu utilisé très souvent une expression sonore à huit clics
14:57on l'a enregistrée des centaines des milliers de fois et on a montré que chaque fois qu'elle était émise et que le cachalot qui était appelé répondait alors les deux cachalots se rejoignaient et se faisaient des caresses
15:22ces caresses sont probablement le moyen de communication le plus important
15:52le plus important
15:54qu'il exige chez les cachalots les cachalots les géants les géants oui c'est 20 mètres 50 tonnes les grands mâles
16:02sont les rois de la délicatesse les rois de la caresse les rois de la légèreté
16:09je ne peux pas croire que dans ces moments échangés il n'y ait pas quelque chose de fondamental d'essentiel
16:17qui les relie entre beaucoup plus fort que tous les mots
16:22a whale song might be what first comes to mind when thinking of their communications
16:37c'est qu'est la même chose
16:38et que les gens sont les moeurs et les mots sont les plus particuliers de l'écriture
16:39les mots sont les plus importantes et les mots
16:40c'est la même chose d'exprimer
16:41et les mots sont les plus importantes
16:42c'est une langue plus forte
16:43c'est la même chose de l'exprimer
16:44However, dolphins are the most articulate and expressive.
17:01Dolphins have languages with more than 60,000 different words.
17:06That's more than many human languages.
17:09They combine distinctive combinations of clicks, whistles, and trills to communicate complex ideas to one another.
17:31The basic communication of survival begins at birth.
17:36Every species of whale and dolphin has their own unique assigned word.
17:45Immediately following the birth of a calf, mother dolphins repeatedly call out their own signature whistle.
17:53This allows time for the new baby to imprint on the unique voice and name of its own mother before hearing the names of the rest of the pond.
18:06When we know about the whistling and also the calves, when they learn their own signature whistle, when they come, maybe they even have a whistle or like a name, a signature name for me, for myself.
18:22Because I'm sure they also talk about what, who is coming, what's going on, when they come to you on front and they scan you and they even have a template probably from different people.
18:35So they have also from their group members.
18:45Two dolphins can even talk about a third animal who is not present by using the absent animal's signature whistle, showing their ability to gossip or exchange information about each other.
19:00Toothed whales, like dolphins, orcas, and sperm whales use sound to navigate, locate prey, and coordinate group hunting by echolocation.
19:17By sending out sonic pulses and reading the echoes that bounce back, they can create an image of what is around them, and each pod member receives the picture at the same time.
19:32In quiet waters, they can navigate every element of their world without using sight, entirely dependent on sound.
19:45Humpback songs are emotive vocalizations made only by males at mating grounds, and they play a key role in attracting females.
20:10These songs evolve and change every year.
20:15Humpback calls, on the other hand, are the basis of their communication, and remain remarkably static and consistent, even over generations.
20:36Now, can you imagine losing your ties to your loved ones?
20:50Your ability to communicate and connect, being forced into an ever louder and lonelier existence as humans intrude into their habitats.
21:03The conditions underwater are hugely altered by the global daily traffic of over 50,000 shipping vessels, sonic explorations, and other human technologies.
21:24And whales and dolphins are struggling to keep up.
21:33For these animals, sound is how they can see the environment.
21:37So if there's a lack, they have any problem with sound production, emission or reception, it's like for us to be blind.
21:46The stress, isolation, and psychological damage of noisy oceans mean no feeding, no meeting, no mating, no offspring, and no future.
22:10For the future.
22:11For the future.
22:12For the future.
22:17For the future.
22:20For the future.
22:23For the future.

22:25Oh wow.

22:29Sounds like for the future.

22:31There.

22:33For some moresed remove.
22:34See this more from that room.

22:43Let her know andructure find a likelihood.
22:44For the future.
22:46When survival is the only goal, life's needs become very focused.
22:54We must be fed, protected, and sheltered.
23:03But if we receive more deliberate care and teaching from those that love us,
23:10if we are taught and nurtured by their careful attention,
23:22then it becomes possible for us not just to survive alone, but to thrive together as a family.
23:40An orca's family, or its pod, is its everything.
23:58Each of these groups has a unique social structure, often centered around several matriarchs.
24:05And its own style of communication that has been passed down from generation to generation.
24:17Giving each pod its own culture.
24:20The Killawale Society
24:38Killawale societies are matriarchal, so grandma rules the roost.
24:42Even though the male is far bigger in size, it's actually the female that's the dominant one.
24:48The killer whale matrilineal society is grandmas, it's mothers, it's sisters, it's daughters,
24:54and they all live together, they care for each other, they feed together, they swim together.
25:00Family life for them is critical.
25:05This is the things that are so similar to what we do in the human world,
25:09that we can see reflected in these animals and these different populations around the world,
25:13which makes us become so much more connected to them.
25:17In a rare and tender display of care, there is even evidence of elder female orca acting as midwives,
25:32attending to the birth of calds.
25:36These elders support calds during their first breaths, gently bringing them to the water's surface
25:43while the mother rests and recovers.
25:47This evidence of care that mother and baby are guided and supported during birth
26:01changes the way that orca enter the world.
26:05Females also shape the family dynamic of sperm whales living in related pods of grandmothers,
26:19aunts, mothers and daughters, who cooperate for life in raising the pods young together.
26:26When the mothers are chasing them, they come with their new-born-nés to the left to the crèche.
26:41C'est la nounou le pilier de la société des cachalots.
26:49Sans nounou, sans cette solidarité, les petits seraient tués.
26:53Par conséquent, il n'y aurait pas de cachalot.
26:57Et autre chose encore très importante, il y a les nounous allaitantes.
27:02Chaque petit a une nounou qui va l'allaiter lorsque sa mère est dans les profondeurs.
27:09Le cachalot est un être social, c'est un cerveau social.
27:14Ils vivent ensemble, ils sont ensemble.
27:17Sous-titrage Société Radio-Canada
27:24C'est un cerveau social, c'est un cerveau social, c'est un cerveau social.
27:29While female sperm whales cooperate for life, males lead a more solitary existence, maturing
27:38slowly, spending around a decade within the care of the pod.
27:43They then migrate alone, as they grow to maturity, before forming short-term bachelor groups,
27:56moving back into the range of females, when it's time to battle for the right to mate.
28:02Like elephants, lions, and great apes, large male whales engage in shows of strength and skill
28:19to drive off weaker competitors, away from females.
28:25Groups of male dolphins form relationships early in life that continue for decades,
28:46and each friendship appears to serve a different purpose.
28:56Some are for hunting, some are for protection, and some are purely for playing and socialising.
29:08The ones that have the strongest social bonds to other males, so the males that we saw most often
29:18together, that these males that were often seen with others, that they also obtained the most females.
29:38Cetacean family ties exceed the pure biological imperative.
29:57If a calf becomes an orphan, there is always someone in the pod to take on the guardian role.
30:08Even more incredible is their capacity for empathy, sometimes resulting in a truly special phenomenon,
30:23an intraspecies adoption.
30:28Sometimes you see very interesting behaviour.
30:32In French Polynesia, we saw these dolphins, these bottom-off dolphins that have adopted
30:37a melon-headed whale, and this is unique.
30:41We believe it was an orphan that got accepted by the group, and it behaves like a dolphin.
30:46So it's also very interesting behaviour that you don't see very often.
30:51This desire to nurture and nourish another being through adoptive care is altruistic, deliberate, and sustained
31:05through emotional connection.
31:08These conscious relationship bonds, the foundation of cetacean families, mirror how humans live and love each other.
31:27The minds of cetaceans have evolved much like ours.
31:38We are all dependent on caring for each other.
31:42It keeps us alive.
31:44We are all dependent on caring for each other.
31:51The time of cetacean family is alive.
32:13It is surprising that the best test we have for cognitive self-awareness,
32:19the neurological soul, involves a mirror.
32:30They can recognize themselves, they can recognize other individuals.
32:33It's about visual recognition, but it's also about using language to identify each other.
32:38It's a highly complicated way, a highly effective way of communicating.
32:44Those levels of complexity suggest high levels of intelligence.
32:50The biggest brain on the planet is not a human brain, it's a sperm whale.
33:00What do they know?
33:02What can they do with all that grey matter that is equivalent to ours plus?
33:08They live in an environment where they use capabilities that we can only dream about.
33:17Using sound to echolocate.
33:22We can't do that.
33:23I mean, not with what we have built in, with our brains.
33:26Whales and dolphins possess deep intelligence.
33:38Their enormous brains have complex capacities to remember, teach, communicate, and coordinate over vast distances.
33:50This is what enables their survival in every ocean on Earth.
33:57From coral reefs to the polar ice caps.
34:08The connection between intelligence and social cooperation might begin with cetacean's capacity for emotional empathy.
34:18As evidenced by a high concentration of spindle cell neurons in their brains.
34:27As evidenced by a high concentration of spindle cell neurons in their brains.
34:31In humans, these neurons are responsible for complex skills like language acquisition, memory, social intelligence, and compassion.
34:43Orcas are also included.
35:13Incredibly inventive hunters.
35:20Constantly adapting to quickly changing circumstances.
35:24Constantly adapting to quickly changing circumstances.
35:26While stealing fishermen's catches, they are able to outthink and outmaneuver.
35:53think and outmaneuver every method used to try and curtail their feeding
36:04people often wonder about cetacean intelligence if they're so smart why haven't they built what
36:12we've built the answer is pretty simple cetaceans don't have hands that would allow them to modify
36:23their environment they can't write things down they don't have a library they stole away somewhere
36:32but they've got a library in their head heads of experiences that do get transmitted from
36:38generation to generation over time the pod and the broader species develop
36:53tools techniques and social structures that evolve over time
37:05each generation builds on the wisdom of their ancestors and since cetaceans lack the physical
37:13dexterity to modify their external environment
37:17their intelligence is focused inward on cooperation family bonds and unique strategic friendships
37:33orcas can live up to 80 years or more and they have these strong family bonds that will remain with them
37:40for the whole of their lives they actually go through menopause which is pretty rare in the
37:45animal kingdom it gives the females an opportunity to pass on the knowledge and the experience that
37:53they've acquired over the years and pass that on directly through cultural learning to these younger
38:00animals and that's a really remarkable thing that you take a back seat you don't compete with your
38:05offspring but you actually take part in learning and nurturing and passing on culture
38:23you
38:35so
38:37bottlenose dolphins also bond over special cultural learning
38:44like having a shower after waking up every morning
38:56it's like on the water spa kind of to clean themselves and we are analyzing right now the
39:04substances of these particular substrates and it looks like that they are antibacterial and even
39:12antifungals they probably are aware of self-medication as well because it could be a very nice prevention for skin disease
39:27obviously they use their intelligence for problem solving
39:34so many behaviors in dolphins remind us of our human capacity to care and nurture
39:45mothers show special strategies for watching over their calves even while they sleep
39:54dolphins are sleeping only with one brain site one is awake and the other one is sleeping and the opposite eye of
40:01the sleeping brain site is closed the eye which is open
40:05looks towards the cough so they are having a connection also during sleeping
40:14this echoes the notion of sleeping with one eye open that is so familiar to human parents watching over a new baby

44:01We take the fish, we make money, we support the family.
44:04And if we don't have the fish, where is the fish?
44:07Where is the nature of the nature?
44:15The ties between cetaceans and humans are physical,
44:20spiritual, and emotional.
44:24The ocean is a part of us.
44:39Historically, around the world, whales
44:43were hunted in small numbers by ancient tribes for food.
44:49But advances in technology led to faster engines
44:53and larger boats.
44:56Whaling became a global commercial enterprise
45:01that pushed many species to near extinction.
45:05Some will never recover.
45:09Humans turned their fat into oil to provide heat and light
45:14for cities around the world, collected
45:18their ambergris for perfume, sold their meat,
45:23and carved their bones.
45:30In the 20th century alone, nearly 3 million whales
45:35were killed by whalers.
45:38Today, commercial hunting continues in a handful of countries
45:43by choice, not necessity.
45:51Those who continue hunting cetaceans have not recognized
45:55that the animals they are killing are the most sensitive of all.
46:03The most intelligent of all.
46:08The most like us.
46:09We're still killing them, not so much deliberately today,
46:18but inadvertently through all the stuff we put in the ocean,
46:21the nets that entangle them, the noise that we put into the ocean
46:25that disrupts their hearing, disrupts their means to communicate.
46:29We can examine, we can excavate, and we can check levels of stress
46:45that the animal's been exposed to because of the hormones that are present
46:47in the tissue of an earplug from the ear canal of a large boleem whale.
46:52We can see the peak of commercial whaling and how that affected populations of whales.
47:02We can also see the period when the moratorium,
47:05the ban effectively on commercial whaling was brought into effect,
47:09and the associated decrease in stress levels.
47:12But actually, since the 1970s and into the 1980s through to the present day,
47:17we're seeing an increase again in the levels of stress hormones,
47:20which are being produced by large whales.
47:42Science can now explore more than just their biology.
47:46We are gaining a deeper understanding of the critical role that they play
47:53in the health of our oceans and our environment.
47:58Wales really are our allies in our battle to mitigate climate change.
48:18Wales also defecate at the surface, and this poo is rich in nutrients,
48:22particularly iron and nitrogen, which are essential for phytoplankton growth.
48:28And it's this phytoplankton, acting like trees do on land,
48:32that plays a key role in removing carbon from the air,
48:35whilst forming the basis of the marine food chain that sustains all ocean life.
48:40Over its lifetime, a whale stimulates the growth of a rain forest of phytoplankton in the ocean,
48:49capturing as much carbon dioxide as thousands of trees, even at its death.
48:53The whale can lock carbon at the bottom of the ocean for hundreds of years.
48:58The whale-
49:17Whales and dolphins have enormous environmental and personal value to humans and the planet.
49:26as well as playing a critical role in our global economy
49:36worldwide whale related eco-tourism generates over 2.5 billion us dollars and supports nearly
49:5020,000 jobs but more importantly these encounters have the power to change people's lives
