Fisherman Save Dolphin

January 21st, 2008

Fishermen James Robson and Mike Hodge spotted a dolphin caught up in low water amongst the rocks and weeds, whilst taking part in a fishing competition in Batson Creek, Devon. The animal was bleeding from its mouth and struggling to break free. Concerned, the two men followed it around the bay. James whistled to the dolphin, (like he’d seen ‘free willy’), amazingly the dolphin responded by following James to the top of the creek, back into the safety of the open sea.

James said that there were a lot boat owners and passengers around with no common sense. Some were grabbing at the dolphins fin and taking photographs of the distressed creature.
