Whale communication first came to wide attention with Songs of the Humpback Whale in 1970. And got mixed with other far-out period themes of nonhuman intelligence, I guess.
Dolphin communication was popularized by John Lilly in the ‘60s, which is why Ecco the Dolphin is named after Lilly’s ‘Earth Coincidence Control Office’.
