86 dolphins found dead on Namibian beach

Windhoek: Namibia said on Monday that 86 dusky dolphins, including two calves just days old, had been found dead on a remote beach and it had launched an investigation into what happened. Marine biologist Kolette Grobler estimated that the mammals had been dead for about a week before they were found on Friday by commercial lobster fishermen at Hottentot Bay, some 40 km (25 miles) north of the southwestern coastal town of Luderitz. “We suspect that one of them was injured or got sick and called on the others for help, and this might have caused them to accidentally beach themselves,” Grobler said.
