Stranded dolphin: ‘There wasn’t anything we could do for him’ Right whale dolphins a rare sight in Oregon By Natalie St. John EO Media Group TIFFANY BOOTHE/SEASIDE AQUARIUM A northern right whale dolphin, a species normally found in warmer waters, beached in Seaview, Wash., Sunday night. SEAVIEW, Wash. — A type of dolphin rarely seen in this area died on the beach south of Seaview Sunday eve- ning. Police received a report of a stranded dolphin that was injured, but still alive, around 8 p.m., Sgt. Tony Leonetti of the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife said in an email. The male northern right whale dolphin “appeared to have a large laceration on its ¿n and along its side,´ Leon- etti said. Responders attempt- ed to put it back into surf, but the “dolphin appeared to be exhausted and was unable to swim.´ Wildlife of¿cers noti¿ed marine mammal experts at the National Oceanic and Atmo- spheric Administration and the Seaside Aquarium, but no one was immediately avail- able to respond to the animal, and experts believed it was already too late to save him. “There wasn’t anything we could do for him,´ Tiffany Boothe of the Seaside Aquari- um said. Boothe said respond- ers don’t know yet if the cut caused the dolphin’s death. “Most likely it was sick. Top ĝrandU. ġaEtory-DKreEt īrKEeU. When a cetacean is on the beach, there’s usually a rea- son. Most of the time they’re sick,´ she said. Boothe is part of the Ore- gon Marine Mammal Strand- ing Network, a coalition of scientists and volunteers who help with rescue and recovery of stranded ocean mammals and research the causes of strandings. She and her aquar- ium colleague Keith Chan- dler coordinate responses to beached whales, dolphins, sea lions, seals and other marine mammals on the northern Or- egon and southern Washing- ton coasts. Northern right whale dol- phins are social animals that often travel in packs of 100 or more members, accord- ing to the NOAA website. Worldwide, there are about 68,000 of the animals. They are protected under the fed- eral Marine Mammal Protec- tion Act, and since the 1970s, there have been international efforts to protect this and oth- er dolphin species. However, northern right whale dolphins are still sometimes acciden- tally caught in gillnets, drift- nets and purse seines, and are sometimes deliberately taken in Japan. Northern right whale dolphins inhabit the “deep, cold temperate waters of the north Paci¿c Ocean´ off the coasts of northern Baja Cali- fornia, the West Coast, Alaska, Russia and Japan, according to NOAA. In the U.S., Boothe said, the species tends to con- centrate in the waters off the coast of central California. “It’s a very unique animal for us to have in this area. They tend to stay in warmer waters. But there is warm-wa- ter current that runs off the Oregon Coast that sometimes gets pushed up north,´ Boothe said. “That’s when you’ll see them in our area.´ You don’t have to move to get that new-home feeling. ġree Ğoupon ĝooM at WKne & ĝeer HauU or onNKne, YYY.UeaUKdeoutNetU.EoO ĝOOĦ WAREHOİSE o ĝRİĞElS ĞAĩDY ĦITĞHEĩ o ĞARTERlS o ĞHRISTOīHER & ĝAĩĦS o ĞħAIRElS o DAISY MAYlS SAĩDWIĞH SHOī o DRESS ĝARĩ & DRESS ĝARĩ WOMEĩ o EDDIE ĝAİER o ġAMOİS ġOOTWEAR OİTħET o ĢĩĞ o HEħħY HAĩSEĩ o ĦITĞHEĩ ĞOħħEĞTIOĩ o ħlEĢĢS HAĩS ĝAħI īħAYTEij EijīRESS o ĩIĦE ġAĞTORY STORE o OSH ĦOSH ĝlĢOSH o īEĩDħETOĩ o īERġEĞT ħOOĦ o RAĞĦ ROOM SHOES o RİE 21 o SEASIDE SHIīīIĩĢ ĞEĩTER o THE WIĩE & ĝEER HAİS o TOĦYO TERIYAĦI o TOYS “R” USo VAĩ HEUSEĩ o ĵUMIEĵ - Open - Monday-Saturday 10-8 Sunday 10-6 12 TH AVE. & HWY. 101 SEASIDE, OR 503.717.1603 Consider a U.S. Bank Home Equity Line of Credit for your next project.
