Monitoring echolocation clicks could be used to track the movements of two endangered freshwater dolphin species that inhabit inaccessible parts of the Amazon Basin—the boto (or pink river dolphin) and the tucuxi—and their interactions with people, reports a paper published in Scientific Reports. A trial of the approach reveals new insights into dolphin movements and behavior, which could contribute to conservation strategies for these species.
