Description: I was wondering about adding this observation because it involves a dead observation rather than a live observation. If this is moderated off then I understand. I was called out to this (originally live) stranding and arrived with others present. We decided to bring it in to send it off for autopsy. The reason I'm posting this is because this stranding was not due to human factors but instead bears all the hallmarks of bottlenose dolphin violence, which, I hope, the photos evidence. People more expert than me suggest that the rake marks are the correct spacing for bottlenose teeth.

Description: During observations at Gwennap head in cornwall I spotted a group of common dolphins chasing their dinner of fish. The photo isn't the dolphins I saw as I didn't have a camera but in fact part of a group of dolphins I saw snorkeling in Mozambique in the summer.
