Video of dolphin rescue goes viral: 'He was crying... as soon as I touched him, he calmed down'

A video showing the rescue of a dolphin by fishermen in Croatia has gone viral. The incident occurred during a routine fishing trip when one of the fishermen, Dražen Arković, touched the distressed dolphin, which then calmed down. The event was captured on camera by a crew member and shared among family members, leading to widespread attention. Marine biologist Dr. Draško Holcer notes that dolphins often get entangled in fishing nets and emphasizes their protected status. He highlights that while dolphins sometimes damage fishing gear, they are not considered enemies. Arković has rescued three dolphins in the past two years, including an instance involving his father decades ago. Authorities have reported several cases of dolphin injuries and deaths due to firearms this year, prompting police investigations.
