He quickly gathered a few of his classmates and the group rushed to the scene. Upon seeing the injured condition of the dolphin, who was struggling to swim back to sea, the group grew frantic with concern.

The poor creature was pictured with cuts around its eyes as it laid on helplessly on the side of the beach.

“We quickly wet the body of the little dolphin until it slowly started moving again. Then, I picked it up and put it back to the sea.”
