Dolphin Care |
Dolphins all around our coast are being killed at an alarming rate, and
it is this organisation and website's to help
stop the needless killing of these beautiful creatures. But we need
your help, to help
stop the deaths of Hundreds of dolphins around our coasts.
We aim to achieve better conservation of dolphins in
the seas around the UK by involving the public in the monitoring of
populations and the threats they face, and by the regular production of
material to educate and inform the general public and to lobby for
better environmental protection on their behalf.
