DOLPHIN BULLYINGA dolphin that for days has lingered in a shallow channel in the wetlands may have been bullied and prevented from leaving by fellow dolphins,
according to one marine rescue specialist.
When rescue crews tried to help the dolphin out of the nature reserve and into the open ocean,
it was aggressively attacked by a small group of peers and was forced back into the wetlands.
“He was scared, he was intimidated, he was bullied," said the animal rescuer.
