Stranding of dolphins in the Red sea!

Stranding of dolphins in the Red sea!

The mortality events for Bottlenose are at an increasing rate, Some scientists suggest that happened because of a virus that attacks the dolphins. 

In the past months, we received a report of a dolphin dying on the coast in El-tur Sinai, which is a common bottlenose dolphin.

This event happened in Mexico as a 337 bottlenose dolphin stranded in 2019, But we can’t confirm this reason in Egypt as we have no research records.

So  HEPCA calls upon scientists, research centers, and bodies working in the field of the environment to study such events to know what should be done later on.
