Stranded Dolphins Pulled From Mangroves MazeLate Monday night, witnesses reported seeing two dolphins stranded in a shallow water lagoon, deep in the mangroves, near Matlacha. The Lee County Sheriff's Office Marine Unit, along with biologists from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) responded Tuesday morning and used shallow water boats to navigate through the mangrove canals and mud flats to locate two dolphins.The lagoon's depth was only 2'-3' deep at high tide. Making the conditions more difficult was the 2' of water or less in the trails leading to open water prevented the dolphins from escaping. Biologists believe the dolphins could have been stranded since -at least- a very high-tide in mid November, or even as far back when water levels rose during Hurricane Milton in October.Due to the technical and environmental challenges of trapping, lifting, and moving the two 9' adult dolphins through heavy mud- FWC, LCSO, MOTE Marine, Brookfield Zoo Chicago-Sarasota, Dolphin Research Program, and Clearwater Aquarium met early Wednesday morning with more shallow water boats and equipment to save the dolphins.With all hands on deck, Lee County Marine Unit deputies jumped in to help. Both dolphins were placed on floating mats and pulled through over 300 yards of mud and muck, and then towed by boat to deeper waters. FWC biologists evaluated the dolphins, applied satellite tags, and they were released back into deeper water in Matlacha Pass.The Lee County Sheriff's Office is always willing to help out our great residents..... on land and sea ...
