Dolphin rescued after tsunami

Rescue workers freed an Indo-Pacific humpback dolphin from a small lagoon where the Asian tsunami had dumped it — returning it to the Andaman Sea in a rare story of survival 10 days after the waves crushed tourist resorts in the surrounding Khao Lak area. The fate of a second, smaller dolphin — believed to be the larger one’s calf — is unclear.
