What a great video. I love how gracefully the dolphin flips out of the water, like it was nothing, and it looks like they are both having fun :) I wonder if the trainer talks to her in a high pitched voice, because dolphins have high pitched voices themselves?
Thank you. We dont use high pitched voices because it is not known very well what they hear from our frequencies. Because of this reason we better can be safe than sorry and focus on the hand signals as communication tool with them. Which doesnt mean they can't hear us at all. :)
Thank you for your question. The first thing I want to show is that working with dolphins we are not with holding their food. :) Second I wanted to show that food is not the only reinforcer that we can use to work with animals. In this case we use the unpredictability through my body language, the timing of the marker and the variation in my reinforcer to keep the learner interested and motivated to be trained. Not using food doesn't mean you are not using positive reinforcement. Reinforcement can be a variety of different things. Thats what we are showing in this video. :)
this is what the whole video is about. The reinforcement does not have to be one to one in paying for every tiny bit of training, it comes in a lot of variations through playing and having a fun time, asking different types and variations of behaviour. Great style and way of training, thank you.
if you want to becoume a zookeoer i would recoment getting training in the netherlands it is world class look up helicon wildlife or zone.college wildlife
They have to live in a carefully controlled saltwater environment, unlike a pool that people use. They need a very expensive and controlled diet. Just because you may have the money, you can't have everything you want for your pool. If you put one into a conventional swimming pool, it would die. The world is about more than having pets for your entertainment. Get a life; get a heart.
This seems to show that dolphins do the behaviors because they love to, not because they have to.
This was essentially my goal to show everybody. Im happy you could see this :)
They do the behaviours because they know that’s the only way to survive and eat 🤷🏼♂️ maybe

This is such a beautiful thing to watch. You can see the literal bond and trust between them both. It's really sweet.
What a great video.

They are pretty smart animals
yo man, can you train a dolphin to assist in aquaculture?
this is awesome! Good job bro!
Dolphins are so cute 🥰 when I grow up I'll be the Dolphin trainer
This I what I want to be when I grow up! Very excited!
great video 👍😊
Their speed in water is insane. Are there humans that could swim faster than dolphins?
lol no
Their speed can reach 30 kilometers. No man can swim that fast
What is the black thing in the water in the foreground, left hand side? Thank you
Hi, Great question. It is Self made algae tight to the bottom of the exhibit.
Why feeding her before the training starts? Isn’t it about positive reinforcement? Thanx for the answer!

This is the only thing, why I don't hate this guy!
Can I learn this?
Excellent training sir
This is my dream but I don't know what country to go too to be able to train them and my favourite dolphins are spinner dolphins

A dream job indeed.

@@monamcclintock998 That was a lot of aggressive assumptions. Maybe you should chill a little yourself?
Good Afternoon,
