common dolphins have stranded on Cape Cod since January 12. I have been fortunate to take part in the rescue and release of 32/37 of the rescued ones. I've been with some when they have died. I have been monitoring some when they have luckily turned around and gone out to deep water.I have followed one in a kayak trying to herd it out to deeper water. The number that have died continues to rise day by day...almost up to 115 now. Scientists do not have the reason yet. Hoping and praying these beautiful animals stay in deep water where they belong and don't get trapped in the hook of the Cape.Thankful for the caring IFAW staff and fellow volunteers and people who call in to report any live animals while there is still a chance to get out there to rescue them.
