Come Join DCP on a Research Expedition

DCP is the only organization with researchers studying the behavior, communication and cognition of both captive and wild dolphins. Join us as we travel to Roatan to Anthony's Key Resort to study their dolphins. This group of bottlenose dolphins is perfect for both surface & underwater observations & sound recordings.

DCP collaborates with the Roatan Institute for Marine Sciences (RIMS) to study dolphins ranging in age from a few months to more than 30 years old. Participants on this DCP ecotour program assist with both data collection & data analyses. We observe these dolphins following the same protocol that we use at our study sites in the Bahamas' and Japan.

Two dolphin swims & a dolphin encounter are reserved for each participant. Volunteer research assistants will assist with surface observations and sound recordings on these dolphins. No previous experience is needed to join our trip.

DCP is pleased to offer our members chances to join us at our Bimini field site. The next Bimini Eco-Tour is expected in 2010. If you are interested in joining DCP in Bimini in 2009, please follow us on Twitter for the latest news!
