Spike in Dolphin deaths along Galicia's (Spain) Atlantic coast
Manage episode 469490881 series 3005672
Welcome to ClimateGenn and I am Nick Breeze.
The following is an update from a post a year ago looking at the impacts on marine ecosystems with the 2024 data on dolphins that came in for the Galician coast in NW Spain.

Doniños beach is a 2km (1.18mile) stretch of sweeping sandy shoreline, exposed to the wild roar of Galicia’s Atlantic waves. At this time of year it is shrouded in a fine sea mist. About midway along the beach a colony of shearwaters takes flight as they eye our arrival.
It is only when we are closer to where they were gathered that we see a large common dolphin lying dead, mouth agape in a jovial toothy smile. Later, further along the beach, we spotted another dolphin lying with the familiar grimace, covered in flies, rotting on the shore. This one, smaller in size, had been dead longer.
“There are days with one dead dolphin, other days with nine.”
