Resort owner Tommy Lam says dolphin became stranded in shallow waters and after being injured by nets.
KOTA KINABALU: A juvenile dolphin, which washed up on a beach in front of a resort in Kudat today, was safely returned to the sea, thanks to the efforts of Sabah Parks and volunteers.
“It looks like the dolphin found itself entangled in the many nets set up by fishermen near the sea and got lost during low tide,” he said. The dolphin, about 1.5m long, had netting marks all over its body and seemed reluctant to go back to the sea.At the moment, he said, it seemed that the dolphin had safely found its way back into the sea.The rescue effort was headed by diving instructor Ray Ng, assisted by two Sabah Park personnel and another diving instructor.
“The only thing we can do is to ensure we are always on hand to help any unfortunate creature that gets caught while travelling in these waters,” he said.
