Heroic Children Save Washed Up Dolphin In Spain
It is not uncommon to hear or read a story where dolphins save human from trouble – some stories traces back to being centuries old. What is not common is when children rescue a dolphin and help it back to its comfort zone just like what these children had done in this video when a confused dolphin was washed on the coast of Marbella, Spain.
As shown in the video, it is a challenge to let the dolphin move into the deeper part of the sea because it is trying to resist. Certainly, it does not understand that it is being offered help. Scared of getting hurt, it wiggles its way off the hands of its rescuers. The strength of the waves poses another challenge – although the waves are not very ferocious, they are strong enough to create an obstacle for the rescuers to lead the dolphin back to the sea, and they are strong enough to keep nudging the dolphin towards the shore. More to the hardship – this shore is stony. It could have been simpler if it was a shore with fine sand, so that the rescuers would keep their foot on the sand for better mobility much more easily. But despite all these hurdles in effecting a rescue, these kids are persistent and relentless: they want to do whatever it takes to help the dolphin find its way home.
Certainly, these kids are heroic – they use their vigor to help another living organism. The question is – could they have done it another way? How about calling and waiting for help from proper authorities because perhaps, there is a better way of leading this dolphin back to the deeper portion of the sea? On the flip side, the situation might escalate and causes a a bigger concern if action was not done as quickly as these children have done.
It cannot be disregarded too, that their heroic act may have put their safety at risk. This dolphin is big enough to sway its tail so swiftly that it can knock these kids down. Added to this, some animals carry diseases that can be transferred to human beings. This poses a higher risk because it is more difficult to assess if an animal carries a particular disease or not while it is easier to weigh whether or not one can handle the resistance a particular animal can do based on its size and its agility.
Despite the question posed above and the reservations on whether or not to act quickly when confronted with a similar situation – a stranded dolphin or dolphin washed ashore, it cannot be denied that these kids have done an exemplary and outstanding move. Folding ones hand and stand aside, watch and simply witness what happens next is an easier choice to make but they have not chosen the easy way out. Thanks to their soft hearts and strong conviction to help, this dolphin was able to track his way back to where it can resume its life and at last, it is again wild and free!
