Re: photo with a dolphin Reply #5 - May 10^th, 2020 at 10:38am I did a bit more digging and it appears it was caught in fishing nets near Tunisia. The species (Delphis?) is rare in the Mediterranean. Not sure if the people in the photo are the fishermen or the marine authority. Not sure if it was 'released'.

I went and checked his fb profile and saw this translation on his page.

Clarification
After some pages passed a picture of me with the dolphin aboard the boat I wanted to point out that the dolphin found him in the sea, a veteran of the sign rope and he was dead and we took pictures aboard the boat and then returned to its natural place sea
And all the claims that the dolphin is a living is without health and contrary to all the claims we as a crew express our grief when we feed dead marine animals and strive with effort and commitment to preserve our marine wealth on all the coast of the tunisian beaches

They put that dead dolphin back in the sea as feed for other sea life. That’s my take on it.

So it may have already been dead (drowned)
But in the end we don't know what the context was.

That's one of the things I hate about social media. It encourages you to judge things and people without knowing what the context is.

It is common practice for people to circulate "shaming posts". I refuse to get involved because i don't know the context or the circumstances. Especially where there is an agenda involved. You can guarantee the only reason freediver posted this is that the "shamee" is Arabic

You are lying.

My initial reaction to FD’s post was the concern for the dolphin.
It didn’t bother me who was holding it and seemingly laughing, just the whole action of it made me want to investigate further about this poor dolphin.
After finding that profile of the person that posted it, realising that their picture was circulated with shock, was when the explanation was put up to counteract all that criticism that the dolphin was already dead as it was caught in rope.
So it’s not about the people, but the dolphin really.
And yes they appeared Arabic, but that photo would have shocked anyone anyways, if the persons holding the dolphin was white, or yellow or black, or green etc
Put it this way, if that dolphin was not in the picture, no problem right?
