Episode Synopsis


Scientists have used tracking devices to enable them to reconstruct the underwater life of the Hector's dolphin. Very little was known of the underwater behaviour of the world's smallest marine dolphin until now. A scientific paper has revealed an array of acrobatics and some incredible underwater sounds. Auckland University Professor Rochelle Constantine was part of the research and chats to Jesse.
