Dead dolphin found stranded in waters off Tsing Lung Tau

A dead dolphin was found in waters off Tsing Lung Tau.

The one-metre long mammal was found stranded in waters off a beach.

A wound was found on its right fin. It is thought to be a finless porpoise.

The most distinct feature of this species is it lacks a dorsal fin.

Personnel from the Ocean Park and SPCA responded and put the carcass in a plastic bag.
