BBC: Bulgarian Dolphin Deaths Could be Linked to illegal Fishing

The discovery of a headless baby dolphin on a Bulgarian beach recently shocked holiday makers, and pushed an old story back into the headlines.

There have been reports of dolphin calves washing up on beaches along the Black Sea coast every summer for the past few years - some missing a head, others a tail.

35 Dead Dolphin Bodies Found on the Black Sea Coast

There are already over 35 dead dolphin bodies that are thrown out on the Black Sea coast and their number continues to rise every day, according to bTV. 

This was stated by Atanas Rusev of the Association "Let's Keep Coral". According to him, this happens all along the Black Sea and depends on the direction of winds and sea currents.
