Are dolphins endanger

Answer 1

Yes, it is true that some species of Dolphins are endangered

First, Dolphin and Tuna follow the same ocean routes. When fishermen use nets to harvest tuna, dolphin can get caught in the nets and get fatally injured or drown. When they struggle in the nets, they become more tightly entangled, and the nets can cause serious cuts, therefore, even if they manage to escape, they may die from their injuries.

Second, Dolphins are endangered due to the general demand of humans for sea food. Overfishing has contributed greatly to endangerment of dolphins. Lack of food is a major reason for many dolphins to swim into strange waters seeking new feeding grounds. Also, another reason is pollution has caused aquatic plants to die out, causing many fish to seek new feeding grounds.

Lastly, dolphins are endangered due to water pollution. The pollution of water bodies has increased significantly, causing toxins and acidic levels to rise, especially in the shallow coastal waters where rivers dump into the ocean. Materials are illegally dumped into rivers and washed to sea, and much is deposited straight in the seas. These materials poison the dolphins and cause health problems, which affect their reproduction, swimming speed and can even lead to death.

Most of them are, but not all breeds.
