Illegal fish nets kill adult male Irrawaddy dolphin in Kratie
Sun, 17 January 2021
Conservationists and communities in the Anlong Kampi Irrawaddy dolphin conservation area in Kratie province said that despite the ban on fishing and regular patrols, fishing offences in the area are still happening which they said is cause for alarm.
The concern was raised when an adult male Irrawaddy dolphin was recently found dead in the Mekong River in Sambok commune of Kratie’s Chitr Borei district.
Provincial Fisheries Administration deputy director Tan Someth Bunwat told The Post on January 17 that the dolphin was found stuck in a fishing net on the evening of January 14.
