Mother dolphins whistle to their calves frequently after birth so that the calves will learn recognising their distinctive whistle.
The verb 'whistle', cannot be paired with future tense 'will learn'. The simple present form, 'learn', is the one to be used instead. The usage 'learn recognising' is incorrect. Only an infinitive can follow the verb 'learn'. The correct usage is 'learn to recognise'. “their mother's distinctive whistle” is the correct usage.
