Zanzibar,Tanzania--Hundreds of dead dolphins were washed up on Friday along the shore of a popular tourist place on Tanzania’s northern coast.Scientists have ruled out poisoning.
It was not immediately clear what killed the 400 dolphins,whose dead bodies lied along a 4-kilometer coast of Nungwi,said Narriman Jidawi,a marine biologist at the Institute of Marine Science in Zanzibar.But the bottleneck dolphins,which live in deep offshore waters,had empty stomachs,meaning they could have got lost and had been swimming for some time to reorient themselves.They did not die of hunger and were not poisoned,Jidawi said.
In the US,experts were looking into the possibility that sonar(声呐)from the US submarine could have caused a similar incident in Marothon,Florida,where 68 deep-water dolphins stranded(搁浅)themselves in March 2005.
The deaths are a blow to the tourism industry in Zanzibar,where thousands of visitors go to watch and swim with dolphins.Villagers,fishermen and hotel residents found the dead bodies and told officials.Mussa Aboud,Zanzibar’s director of fisheries,went on state radio to warn the public against eating the dolphins’meat,saying the cause of death had not been found.
