Hal Whitehead is one of world's foremost experts on the social behaviour and culture of whales. In any culture, information moves between individuals through social learning. This cultural flow is important and affects evolution, ecology, and society. The various cultures of modern humans are undeniably complex. But are humans the only species to have important cultural constructs? Hal Whitehead will speak at TEDxHalifax 2012 about biologists' emerging understanding of the culture of sperm whales.

About TEDx
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
