Rescued Irrawaddy dolphin calf dies despite weeks of care
An Irrawaddy dolphin calf who was rescued and nursed day and night for weeks by vets and volunteers after his rescue from a tidal pool on Thailand’s shore has died, officials who were caring for the animal said on Wednesday.
The calf was nicknamed Paradon, roughly translated as “brotherly burden,” when he was found by fishermen on July 22.
