Can dolphins speak? No, they can not, but something in
their language says that they are communicating with others.

whistle sounds that seem to refer to a shared meaning, expressing either
questioning or alarm. Some researchers are claiming this shared usage is the
best evidence yet that these intelligent marine mammals have a language-like
communication system.

many “information-carrying” whistling noises and may communicate extra
detail by changing the volume of their whistles, but until now researchers have
avoided claiming the animals – indeed, any other non-human animals – have
a language.”

brought about by intelligent design,
