🇧🇷 A Local Resident Rescues Dolphin During Severe Drought on the Madeira River in the Amazon

🆘 In Brazil, on the Madeira River, which is experiencing its worst drought in 57 years, a local resident rescued a dolphin trapped in shallow waters. Due to the extremely low water levels, the animal could not free itself. The extreme drought continues to threaten the local ecosystem, and the dolphin’s rescue has become a symbol of the struggle against natural challenges in the region.

‼️We continue to strongly urge the unification of the world’s leading scientists to study the true causes of global climate change and to find solutions to this pressing issue.
