Stranded dolphin rescued in Leyte

A dolphin was rescued from shallow waters in Barangay Ul-og, Calubian, Leyte, and safely returned to deeper waters off Barangay Efe on Monday, September 7, 2026. The rescue involved personnel from the Philippine Coast Guard, the Department of Agriculture (DA)-Calubian, and the Municipal Environment and Natural Resources Office (MENRO). The dolphin was found during low tide and appeared to have become disoriented due to strong sea currents and winds. It had a minor wound on its snout, possibly caused by contact with rocks. The animal measured approximately 5 feet 9 inches in length and was released back into the ocean after being assessed and guided by the rescue team.
