Dolphin Institute

Description

About TDI The Dolphin Institute (TDI) is the not-for-profit 501(c)(3) arm of the Kewalo Basin Marine Mammal Laboratory in Honolulu, Hawaii. TDI is dedicated to the study and preservation of dolphins, whales, and other marine mammals, and to the education of people whose attitudes and activities affect the survival and well-being of these animals. Part of TDI's mission of research and education is to provide programs where people from all over the world and from all walks of life can gather to work with and learn from dolphins andhumpback whales. TDI was founded in 1993 by Dr. Louis M. Herman, Dr. Adam A. Pack, and several friends of KBMML, and is governed by a community-based Board of Directors. Our educational philosophy Intellectual potential is best realized through a long-term program of special education within a culture that values education. These are precisely the conditions under which the full flower of human intellect emerges. We have applied this same philosophy to the education of our dolphins, and have been impressed by the breadth and depth of intellect revealed.
