Pakistan’s rare dolphins found dead on river bank

[Dance]

KARACHI: Wildlife authorities say they have found the carcasses of six endangered river dolphins in Pakistan over the last month.

Sindh Wildlife Department deputy head Ghulam Mohammad accused on Monday local fishermen, saying their poison and nets were to blame for the deaths of the Indus River Dolphin.

The blind mammal is found only in the Indus River. A 2006 survey put the numbers left in the river at 1,300.

Increasingly low water levels and the spilling of pesticides into the river have reduced the dolphins’ habitat.

This dolphin is one of our wonders in my opinion, truly unique to Pakistan. I really wish more was done to protect them.

The same is happening to the Ganges Dolphin and alligator.

We people dont know how to care for our flora and fauna.
