Mersing APM beach rescue tower personnel spotted the beached mammal while putting up red flags along the coastline.They tried to release the dolphin back into the water but were unable to do so because of the high tide and strong winds. They then contacted the Fisheries Department for assistance in rescuing the dolphin, which appeared to have an injury on its tail.Johor Fisheries Department director Zainudin Abd Wahab confirmed that the dolphin had sustained an injury to its tail.
