Today is and without taking a step, we can see so many local environments that provide critical habitat for our local wildlife.

The dunes.
The sea.
The beach.
The Intracoastal.
The estuary.
The shoreline.
The marsh.
The mudflats.
The mangroves.
The seagrasses.

Look around. What habitat does your local environment provide and who does it provide it for? Today we're sharing gratitude for this planet that gives us everything we need.

After 50 years signature whistle research returns to Marineland!

(Top: David and Melba Caldwell record signature vocalizations circa 1960s. Bottom: SFA Grad student Callie Lynn and undergrad Lena Slater record Dolphin signature whistles at Marineland, June 4th 2026).

Started in the 1960s by Marineland scientists David and Melba Caldwell, this research began a line of inquiry that would not only be pivotal to our understanding of dolphins, but animal communication broadly. Signature whistles function like dolphin “names” and are arguably the most “language-like” thing we know about in non-human animal communication systems. Signature whistles refer to specific dolphins and can even be used by individuals to address each other. We even know that dolphins have a symbolic understanding of signature whistles, which means that, much like how you can picture a best friend upon hearing their name, dolphins too can form mental representations of the known dolphins whose signatures they hear. Fifty years later Marineland researchers and graduate students from Stephen F. Austin State University are working to find out how manmade noise affects signature whistle transmission from dolphin to dolphin. This work will have essential conservation implications moving forward.

"I am so grateful for my years at Marineland Dolphin Adventure. I’ve made amazing friendships and unforgettable memories, and I’ve truly loved working around all of the animals — especially the tortoises and dolphins. This place has become like a second home, and I will always cherish the experiences and connections I’ve made here." ~ Jill
