海豚成群跳躍耍樂&檳城大橋人潮圍觀

A few days ago Amanda my colleague went to Pulau Redang and when
she came back to office. She told me that she saw Dolphins on
the way from the jetty to the Island.

I was like -_= and asked her, sure boh????

She said it's true !! its true !! its true !!

And I was wondering, what is wrong with the ocean nowadays. I
mean previously Dolphines does not visit Malaysia cost that
frequently, has the ocean changed?

Is the change caused by the Tsunami on 12 Dec 2004?? Well it's
too early to tell.

But I hope and I really hope, what following the appearance of
the Dolphines would not be "Sharks" and "Great White Sharks"
else I am done !!!

Cause I takut Sharks like hell !!! Banyak takut !!!
Now read the article of Dolphines sight at Penang Bridge yesterday!

(北海訊)十餘隻相信是迷失方向的海豚週一(16日)早上集體游入檳威海峽,並且在檳城大橋底下附近的海域飛躍,吸引了路過大橋的騎士和司機紛紛停車觀看,結果造成大橋交通小阻塞。

此批相信是來自深海的海豚是於週一早上7時30分左右,出現在檳城大橋底下(第4.3公里)處,當時它們皆浮在海面上,與站在橋上的公眾人士僅是距離數十尺之遠,所以大家都很清楚的看到它們在海上飛躍耍樂。

這些十餘隻海豚的背部皆為青黑色及腹部為白色,身體約三四呎長,有大有小,它們皆圍繞著圈子不斷的在游玩,而且一隻接一隻的在海中跳躍,使到在橋上的路過者大開眼界,親睹難得一見的情景。

人潮漁船導致受驚

基於當時因為橋上的人潮愈來愈多,再加上多艘漁船在附近經過,導致海豚們受驚後游走。

在場的一名巫裔青年卡倫受詢時表示,海豚在上述地點逗留約半個小時,當時他正好經過大橋,在發現有大批的人站在大橋旁觀望時,他也好奇的停下電單車與這些人一起望向大海,結果這時才發現,海中真的有十多隻的海豚在追逐玩耍。

他說,這些海豚原本欲游越靠近大橋底下,但後來可能是受到驚嚇後轉回頭,向木蔻山的方向游去,最終失去了它們的蹤影。
