Dolphin conversation

From Mirabilis.ca

From today’s Social Studies section in the Globe and Mail:

"If a team of Scottish marine biologists are to be believed . . . dolphins are not to be trusted," writes Bruno Maddox in Discover magazine.

"They gossip. We know this because we know their names. Each bottlenose individual identifies itself by a unique pattern of whistles and clicks . . . What was not known until the Scottish research, however, is that a pair of dolphins use the name of a third dolphin when that third dolphin isn’t present. In other words, dolphins gossip."

Vellos e novos camiños = Viejos y nuevos caminos = Old and new paths / José Carlos Valle Pérez

Can anyone confirm that the above is in, as I think, Galician, Spanish and English?

Book is from Pontevedra, so it seems the most logical... Next best guess seems to be portuguese.
