This behaviour was observed between an adult of unknown sex, referred to as the 'aggressor,' and a carcass of a male neonate, referred to as the 'target.' The videos were recorded on 10 August 2024, by an amateur diver from an inflatable boat, near Kınalıada, located in the northeastern part of the Marmara Sea. This report is the first observed case of a possible infanticide in bottlenose dolphins in the Marmara Sea.
