DEC to the rescue <strong>of</strong><br />
stranded dolphin<br />
IT would appear our local<br />
dolphin population are not<br />
regular readers <strong>of</strong> the<br />
<strong>Walpole</strong> <strong>Weekly</strong>.<br />
In our March 23 issue we<br />
reported (“Will Nornalup<br />
Inlet close?”) that the flow<br />
from the Frankland River<br />
was at historical low levels<br />
and there was a chance the<br />
mouth <strong>of</strong> the inlet would<br />
close for the first time.<br />
There have been days<br />
recently when Garry Muir<br />
has been unable to reach<br />
the WOW jetty because the<br />
water level has been too<br />
low.<br />
Now a dolphin has been<br />
left high and dry.<br />
On Friday afternoon, a<br />
member <strong>of</strong> the public<br />
contacted DEC to report<br />
that the dolphin had<br />
become stranded on a sand<br />
bar in the marine park<br />
about 3.30pm.<br />
DEC staff conducting a<br />
burn to the west <strong>of</strong> the inlet<br />
(using a boat to access this<br />
area) attended the<br />
stranding within five<br />
minutes <strong>of</strong> being notified.<br />
The staff and the<br />
community member, led<br />
by Karlene Bain, nature<br />
conservation coordinator,<br />
helped the dolphin by<br />
lifting and guiding it to<br />
deeper water.<br />
The dolphin swam <strong>of</strong>f<br />
about 3.45pm.<br />
DEC manager Allison<br />
Donovan said staff would<br />
continue to monitor the<br />
inlet over the weekend to<br />
ensure the dolphin did not<br />
re-strand.<br />
