Episode 2: Dolphins For Science

from Sip and Saga Society Hosted by Karina

This week the girls cover the story of Margaret Lovatt from St. Thomas island. In the 1960's she teamed up with a neuroscientist to teach dolphins human language. They built a lab funded by NASA and the Navy, complete with a "Dolphinarium" flooded with water. Lovatt spent days with Peter the dolphin, trying to get him to say "Hello Margaret," which turned out to be quite a challenge—Shocking! Their quirky journey is captured in the documentary "The Girl Who Talked to Dolphins."
