Yeah, they seem especially smart.
I liked the bits on the extra part of their brain- the paralimbic system or what have you- that's linked to emotion and how, when being corralled, the adults lure the boats away while the mothers take the children in a different direction. They're likely even more intelligent than we can imagine.
I also wonder what causes the dorsal collapse. You'd think they'd be able to determine the cause after all these years of research.
