Akeakamai (c. 1976 – November 12, 2003) (Nickname: Ake ("ah-KAY")) was a female Atlantic bottlenose dolphin, who, along with a companion female dolphin named Phoenix, and later tankmates Elele and Hiapo, were the subjects of Louis Herman's animal language studies at the Kewalo Basin Marine Mammal Laboratory in Honolulu, Hawaii. The most well-known paper is the original work described in Herman, Richards, & Wolz (1984). Akeakamai was also the subject of many other scientific studies of dolphin cognition, language acquisition, and sensory abilities.

  • Akeakamai (capturada el 1976 – morta el 12 de novembre de 2003) era una femella de dofí mular de l'Oceà Atlàntic. El nom significa en hawaià "filòsofa", és a dir, amant (ake) de la saviesa (akamai). Akeakamai, junts amb els companys d'aquari Phoenix, Elele i Hiapo, va ser objecte dels estudis de sobre el llenguatge animal a Kewalo Basin Marine Mammal Laboratory a Honolulu, Hawaii. L'article més conegut és l'obra original descrita per Herman, Richards i Wolz (1984). L'estudi va investigar l'habilitat de dos dofins mulars, Akeakamai i Phoenix, per entendre oracions exhortatives. El plantejament d'examinar la comprensió contrasta amb el plantejament habitual de molts estudis amb els grans simis que s'enfoquen a la producció. Els resultats presenten la primera evidència convincent de l'habilitat dels dofins mulars per processar informació semàntica i sintàctica d'oracions. La metodologia dels experiments subratlla la independència de l'habilitat de la comprensió de la modalitat de la comunicació perquè els experiments van fer servir dos llenguatges artificials diferents: un que era auditiu i un altre que era visual. També va ser subjecte de diversos altres estudis sobre la cognició i habilitats sensorials dels dofins. Les circumstàncies de la seva mort van desencadenar una controvèrsia quant a l'estat sanitari al laboratori on residia. Atès que Akeakamai va patir de càncer, es va decidir acabar la seva vida el dia 12 de novembre de 2003. (ca)

The most well-known paper is the original work described in Herman, Richards, & Wolz (1984). Akeakamai was also the subject of many other scientific studies of dolphin cognition, language acquisition, and sensory abilities. Physically identifying features of Akeakamai included a straight eye line, a half-circle-shaped notch in the right side of her tail fluke, a small "Eiffel Tower"-shaped mark above her right eye, a thin notch in the side of her upper mouth, and a particularly wide melon. She also had characteristic in-air whistle calls, including an unusual high-low-high whistle that was well below typical signature whistle frequencies. In the Hawaiian language, Akeakamai means "philosopher" or "lover (ake) of wisdom (akamai)". Akeakamai was also the name given to an uplifted dolphin character in David Brin's science fiction novel Startide Rising. Akeakamai was euthanized due to cancer on November 12, 2003. (en)
