150 dolphins washed up on the coast of Australia. Authorities are afraid of accumulations of sharks

More than a hundred black dolphins (grinds) washed up on the shore of Hamelin Bay in Western Australia, half of which, unfortunately, are already dead. Locals rushed to the beach after noticing so many dolphins. Animal carcasses were found on the morning of March 23, a few kilometers from the city of Augusta.

An eyewitness told local media that when she got to the beach, it seemed to her that the animals were dead. However, she soon noticed that some dolphins were still moving in an attempt to return to the water. But they could not do it because of the coastal rocks, already soaked in their blood, and the bodies of other dead animals.

A representative of the Conservation Service of Western Australia said that their main priority is to help live dolphins and ensure the safety of all participants in the rescue operation.
