Quang ninh: A pod of large dolphins was spotted swimming close to shore near Cai Chien Island in the northern province of Quang Ninh on June 1, according to local authorities. Dinh Quang Manh, Chairman of the Cai Chien commune People's Committee, said residents working near the island's pier discovered the dolphins in the early afternoon. The pod, consisting of three large dolphins, was seen surfacing and swimming around the area for an extended period. Despite the presence of onlookers approaching the shoreline, the animals showed no signs of fear.

According to Vietnam News Agency, the sighting of these dolphins near Cai Chien Island has sparked interest among locals and tourists alike. The dolphins' calm behavior, despite the presence of onlookers, suggests that the area might be a regular habitat or a favored spot for these marine mammals. Local authorities have been encouraged by this sighting and are considering measures to protect the area to ensure a safe habitat for the dolphins. This event has also raised awareness about marine life in the region, prompting discussions on conservation efforts to protect the biodiversity of Quang Ninh's coastal waters.
