- Abstract
The article presents a study on the behavioral observations of coastal Irrawaddy Dolphins in Trat Province, Eastern Gulf of Thailand. During an aerial and boat surveys, a large groups of adult and/or subadult Irrawaddy dolphins were observed engaging in intense social behavior. The social behaviors may be attributed to maintaining social bonds in an open area where levels of inter-group interactions appear to be low.
