👉 Human experimentation on cetaceans (such as dolphins and whales) typically involves invasive procedures such as feeding anesthetics or implants into their brains to study neurological functions, often conducted without proper consent. These experiments raise significant ethical concerns due to the animals' intelligence and complex social behaviors. However, more recently, non-invasive methods like acoustic monitoring and behavioral studies have emerged, aiming to understand cetacean cognition and communication while avoiding direct harm, although these still face ethical scrutiny regarding their impact on wild populations.
