A new year, but the same mission – applying advanced machine learning and state-of-the-art robotics to listen to and translate the communication of sperm whales.

As we embark on another year of exploration, we return to the principles that shape how we listen, build, and discover.

Last week, we launched Listen to the Whales with the National Geographic Society— an invitation to explore the rich communal lives of sperm whales and discover why deciphering their world matters.

Immerse yourself in the website where you can:

🐳Meet the whales
🔊Hear special audio selections
🌊Learn about CETI’s vision to reframe our connection to the natural world through listening

✉️And sign up to join the campaign so we can keep you in the current with actions you can take to support the whales and our oceans.

Moment-by-moment of a sperm whale birth.

A new CETI paper, published in @nature.portfolio’s Scientific Reports, details the first time a sperm whale birth has been scientifically documented with audio and video, and is the most in-depth documentation of any whale birth! The paper reveals new insights into the rich internal and communal lives of sperm whales and their ancient birth caregiving practice, through contextualizing the findings within what is known about whale behavior, communication, and evolution.

➡️Swipe to see some of the key findings from the paper!

The paper, “Description of a collaborative sperm whale birth and shifts in coda vocal styles during key events” and the complete list of CETI authors can be read at the link in our bio.

We are constantly fascinated by how different marine animals communicate, from the giant whales to the tiny shrimp🦐

Mantis shrimp communicate with light invisible to almost every other creature on earth.

Their remarkable eyes, capable of seeing multiple directions at once and uniquely detecting circularly polarized light, allow them to send secret messages in the deep.

Along with their extremely complex vision, peacock mantis shrimp specifically have the fastest punch in the animal kingdom, reaching speeds of up to 50mph!

Keep following along to learn more about marine life and conservation with @kogia_org and @projectceti!

Happy Mother’s Day to all mothers, grandmothers, mother figures across all species.

Today, we celebrate the matriarchs of Unit A, who spent hours supporting each other and working together to welcome their newest family member into the world. This reminds us that the power of motherhood transcends biology and species.

Female sperm whales stay with their mothers and their matrilineal social unit for their whole lives, helping to raise the next generation and bestowing crucial knowledge and care.💙🐳

Learn more about the collaborative caregiving to the newborn by all of the members of Unit A in the CETI Paper: “Cooperation by non-kin during birth underpins sperm whale social complexity” in the link in our bio!

💙 This Mother’s Day, let’s look at the incredibly collaborative birth process of sperm whales.

🐋 A team of @projectceti and @amnh researchers recently published the most comprehensive documentation of a sperm whale birth ever recorded! Besides humans, scientists are finding that sperm whales are one of the most empathetic, caring, and community-oriented species on our planet. Hear more about the exciting findings from the CEO and Founder of Project CETI and Museum Research Associate David Gruber, and visit the link in our bio to learn more.

Did you know that the first known whale walked on land?

Did you know that scientists only discovered sperm whales communicate in the 1950s? 🌊

Even more fascinating, it’s now scientifically proven that they have different accents. You can tell which family group a whale belongs to just by their clicks. It’s almost like trying to understand an alien.

Now, we’re finally getting closer to translating what they are saying.

David Gruber from @projectceti joined us to talk about sperm whale communication in our latest Not a Biologist episode.

Meet Dianka George (@itz.dolce.d), 2025/2026 CETI Dominica Marine Conservation Fellow!

Since childhood, Dianka has always been drawn to the ocean, and her experiences throughout the Fellowship have deepened her commitment to understanding and protecting it.

➡️Swipe to see some key moments from Dianka’s experience discovering firsthand the basics of sailing with the CETI Marine Operations Team aboard the CETI 1 research vessel.

Some lasting lessons she learned at sea:

- To steer straight, find a fixed point. The mountains of Dominica were my guide.

- The wind, boat, and sailor must work together to move across the water. We had to adjust the sails with the winch to meet the wind.

- You can read the wind using your ears. Using your body as a compass, you can feel the direction and strength of the wind.

- Dolphins love to sail too. Catching a bow-ride is a frequent behavior for dolphins, thought to be pure play for them, it was a magical moment for us.

- The wind, boat, and sailor must work together to move across the water. We had to adjust the sails with the winch to meet the wind.

- You can read the wind using your ears. Using your body as a compass, you can feel the direction and strength of the wind.

- Dolphins love to sail too. Catching a bow-ride is a frequent behavior for dolphins, thought to be pure play for them, it was a magical moment for us.

What does it look like when a sperm whale is born?🐋🌊

We recently filmed another episode of "Not a Biologist". In this episode, we talk about sperm whales, their birth, and so much more.

@terramater​ sat down with David Gruber, marine biologist and President & Founder of @projectceti , to discuss one of the most extraordinary moments ever captured on camera: the first-ever filmed sperm whale birth.

Watch the full episode on our YouTube channel tomorrow, April 30!💙

Instagram Hikayelerini Gizli Görüntüleyin

Instagram Hikaye Görüntüleyici, Instagram hikayelerini, videoları, fotoğrafları veya IGTV'yi gizlice izleyip kaydetmenizi sağlayan basit bir araçtır. Bu hizmetle, içerikleri indirip istediğiniz zaman çevrimdışı olarak keyfini çıkarabilirsiniz. Instagram'da daha sonra görmek istediğiniz bir şey bulduysanız veya anonim kalmak isterseniz, bizim Görüntüleyicimiz sizin için mükemmeldir. Anonstories, kimliğinizi gizli tutmak için mükemmel bir çözüm sunar. Instagram, Hikaye özelliğini Ağustos 2023'te başlatmış ve bu format, etkileşimi yüksek ve zaman sınırlı olduğu için hızla diğer platformlar tarafından benimsenmiştir. Hikayeler, kullanıcıların hızlı güncellemeler paylaşmasını sağlar; fotoğraflar, videolar veya selfie'ler, metin, emojiler veya filtrelerle zenginleştirilmiş ve sadece 24 saat görünür. Bu sınırlı süre, normal gönderilere göre yüksek etkileşim yaratır. Bugünlerde, Hikayeler sosyal medyada bağlantı kurmanın ve iletişim kurmanın en popüler yollarından biridir. Ancak, bir Hikaye görüntülediğinizde, yaratıcısı adınızı görüntüleyici listesinde görebilir ki bu da gizlilik endişesi yaratabilir. Peki ya Hikayeleri fark edilmeden görüntülemek isterseniz? İşte burada Anonstories devreye girer. Kimliğinizi ifşa etmeden, kamuya açık Instagram içeriğini izlemenizi sağlar. Sadece merak ettiğiniz profilin kullanıcı adını girin, araç size en son Hikayelerini gösterecektir. Anonstories Görüntüleyicisinin Özellikleri: - Anonim Tarama: Hikayeleri görüntüleyici listesine düşmeden izleyin. - Hesap Gerekmez: Instagram hesabı oluşturmadan kamuya açık içeriği görüntüleyin. - İçerik İndirme: Hikaye içeriklerini cihazınıza indirip çevrimdışı olarak kullanabilirsiniz. - Öne Çıkanlar Görüntüleme: Instagram Öne Çıkanlarına erişin, 24 saatlik süreyi aşarak da. - Yeniden Paylaşım Takibi: Kişisel profillerin Hikayeleri üzerindeki paylaşımları veya etkileşim seviyelerini takip edin. Kısıtlamalar: - Bu araç yalnızca açık hesaplarla çalışır; özel hesaplar erişilemez. Yararları: - Gizlilik Dostu: Herhangi bir Instagram içeriğini fark edilmeden izleyin. - Basit ve Kolay: Uygulama yükleme veya kayıt gerekmez. - Özel Araçlar: Instagram’ın sunmadığı şekilde içerik indirme ve yönetme.
