KARACHI: A dolphin that got entangled in fishing nets recently was safely released back into offshore waters about 96km south of Kund Malir, a desert beach part of Gwadar district of Balochistan.
The species was later identified as a common bottlenose dolphin about seven feet long.
“It’s a rare case and one must appreciate the fishermen who acted fast and rescued the dolphin, else it could have died. The marine mammal was caught in a tuna gillnet,” technical adviser (marine fisheries) to the World Wide Fund for Nature-Pakistan (WWF-P) Mohammad Moazzam Khan told Dawn.
