Urgent: We must save river dolphins 🐬 They're extraordinary. But all 6 species face extinction. The good news? The #GlobalRiverDolphinDeclaration will unite nations to protect them and their rivers. Together, we can secure our shared home and the nature we rely on. Part 1 👇

Very proud of the work our team put together - bringing in wildlife etiquette via a travelling cinema and visual material. Humans can be made responsible for saving our wildlife and environment. We are part of the solution! @sindhwildlife @WWFPak @WWFRiverDolphin

We’ve just wrapped up our first Travelling Cinema and dolphin information camps along the Kirthar Canal in Balochistan. A pilot project in what will hopefully be our staple outreach program a thread 🧵 #bulhanbachao

El delfín del Ganges es considerado como el “Tigre del Ganges”, este nadador es prácticamente ciego y atrapa a sus presas por medio de la ecolocalización, emitiendo sonidos y escuchando el eco reflejado cuando rebota en los objetos 🔊🐟
