A dolphin of 2.20 meters and 120 kilograms was found stranded on Tuesday night at Playa Grande, located in Puerto del Carmen. Finally, the animal died shortly after reaching the coasts of Lanzarote.

Injured Wildlife went to the scene, who decided to move the dolphin to the dry area to examine the mammal's condition. Once it was verified that it had died, the biologist decided to have the dolphin removed and placed on a cart for later transfer to the SECAC, where the service would end.
