Imagine early whalers hearing these sounds through the hull of their ships, miles and miles from home. If you want to know what they really sound like, this is a recording. It’s a very unique way of finding out where you are in space by locating obstacles. Echolocation involves the production of sound and timing of the reception of its echo after rebounding from any solid surface including prey or the seabed.īats use echolocation to fly at night and beluga whales use echolocation to swim in deep dark waters that are nearly pitch-black for half of every year. Nicknamed “canaries of the sea” by early whalers because of their squeaking, clicking and whistling, beluga whales have a unique communication system referred to as “echolocation” in Finding Dory. ![]() Smart and cute, what more could you wish for? Beluga Whales Shellfish (they love abalones, mussels and clams), otters will float on their backs to use both front paws to hit a shell with a rock until it breaks. They teach their pups everything about foraging, diving and grooming, as well as being good swimmers. Mother-pup pairs are very important because in sea otter groups, only the female is responsible for the pup.

Unlike many other species, Pacific blue tangs are very hard to breed in captivity and a surge in demand from aquarium owners might endanger wild populations, illegally collected with chemicals that stun them. This prevents the algae from overgrowing and suffocating the coral. Present in Indo-Pacific waters, wild Pacific blue tangs play an important role in the health of coral reefs as they feed on algae, using their sharp teeth to rip it from rocks and coral. Living in narrow holes and crevices, blue tang’s predators include tuna, bar jacks and tiger grouper. Now it’s my pleasure to introduce the real heroes of Finding Dory!

They are both fierce ocean advocates and after the screening, they mimicked the echolocation “superpowers” of the beluga whale and commented on the six-pack rings squeezing a poor turtle in the middle. For them, it definitely worked and I’m pretty sure that the ocean conservation message played a part in that. At the preview, most kids were under 6, but the Finding Dory-themed nail art and face paint activities won my girls’ heart so that was fun.ĭuring the movie, they laughed at jokes and looked (a little) worried in scary scenes, they related with the character’s struggles and cheered in the final scenes.
