The study of whales and dolphins is called cetology. Cetology encompasses the scientific study and research of cetaceans, which are marine mammals including whales, dolphins, and porpoises. This field of study examines their behavior, anatomy, physiology, ecology, evolution, and conservation. Cetologists may conduct research both in the wild and in captivity to better understand these fascinating creatures and to promote their protection and welfare.
