AT
LEAST 8 COMMON DOLPHINS STRAND ON ACHILL ISLAND IN COUNTY MAYO - COURTESY
OF THE IRISH WHALE
AND DOLPHIN GROUP
February
2013. At least eight common dolphins have been found dead on the beaches of
Achill Island, in Ireland's Co. Mayo. Unconfirmed reports suggest that there
may be another dead dolphin on a nearby island and a second dolphin may have
been buried on the beach.
Most
of the dolphins are thought to have died very recently, although there are no
reports of any live strandings. While there are occasionally live strandings
involving groups of dolphins, it is very unusual, in Ireland at least, to see
this number of dead dolphins washed ashore over a 10km area.
