Behavioural changes in female Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphins in response to boat-based tourism (2007, unknown): “The condition of the mother as well as her experience and foraging success are factors that influence calf survival (Mann & Watson-Capps 2005).”
Dispersal, philopatry, and the role of fission‐fusion dynamics in bottlenose dolphins (2013, methodology): “Data were collected using focal follows and surveys (see Mann 1999, Mann and Watson-Capps 2005, Gibson and Mann 2009).”
Early social development in wild bottlenose dolphins: sex differences, individual variation and maternal influence (2008, background): “Previous studies of Tursiops in Shark Bay, Australia have focused on calf foraging development (Mann & Sargeant 2003), association and factors related to calf mortality (Mann et al. 2000; Mann & Watson-Capps 2005).”
Aggression in bottlenose dolphins: Evidence for sexual coercion, male-male competition, and female tolerance through analysis of tooth-rake marks and behaviour (2005, background): “Details concerning focal observations are reported elsewhere (see Mann & Watson-Capps, 2005).”
The size, composition and function of wild bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops sp.) mother–calf groups in Shark Bay, Australia (2008, background): “…of their time alone, and given the energetic demands of lactation (e.g. Cheal & Gales 1991), and that maternal foraging time was correlated with the proportion of time spent alone, it is clear that lactating females spend considerable periods of time alone to forage (see Mann & Watson-Capps 2005).”
