This Solitary Dolphin in the Baltic Sea Is Really Going Through It Right Now

A solo traveler off the coast of Denmark is apparently screaming into the void, revealing the importance of social interactions for dolphins.

A dolphin dubbed Delle appears to be talking to himself in the Baltic Sea’s Svendborgsund channel off the coast of Denmark. According to a team of researchers that recorded Delle, the solitary dolphin may be so desperate for social connection that he’s thinking out loud.


The researchers aren’t entirely sure why the animal produced “sounds typically considered communicative,” as they note in research published last month in Bioacoustics. But that makes Delle’s situation all the more compelling. Dolphins are very social animals, and chatter in a diverse array of clicks, squeaks, and other sounds. In lieu of other dolphins, Delle resorted to what the researchers call “self-talk.”

This thread has a lot of video clips from the EVNautilus channel, but they also have a livestream (3 actually, with cameras displaying different aspects of a mission) which runs pretty much 24/7.

I've gotten into the habit of watching when A. I've nothing else to do, and B. they're out at sea with the remote submersibles going about their business.

I like when the crew is chatting among themselves, rather then focusing on the science or educational efforts, answering questions from the channel chat (I mean, I like all that, too). They are a lot like us, in that they spend a lot of time talking about food.
