That’s remarkable. I wonder if they do this in the wild? And if one or two were doing it previously, as I believe someone said, why did it take years for the others to pick it up? What does this tell us about the nature of their intelligence and communicative abilities?
I hope they aren’t doing it simply because they’re bored. I don’t approve of keeping cetaceans in captivity - or apes or elephants, for that matter.
