2. What is happening?
Severalmass deaths of dolphins have
occurred over the past few years and
while experts are worried about the die-
off they say we are not witnessing a
global population crash.
3. Who is it effecting?
only
certain populations of the effected
species have been hit hard
thepast two years have been rough for
several species of dolphins, but not all of
the nearly 40 species of dolphins are in
hot water.
4. How can we help?
reducing pollution can help these animals, as
chemicals such as PCBs can be transported by air
for thousands of miles before being deposited into
the marine environment
Don’t feed the wild dolphins,the practice brings
dolphins closer to the dangers of being struck by
boats or tangled in fishing lines and disrupts the
animals' social groups
