ROHRI: The Sindh Wildlife Department on Tuesday rescued a rare Indus dolphin from the Rohri Canal that strayed into the waters from Sukkur Barrage.
The dolphin reached the Rohri Canal in Khairpur.
The rescue mission was completed by 25 professional divers, which recovered the dolphin after a 4-hour-long operation.

This species of dolphin resides within murky waters between the Guddu and Sukkur Barrage.
The in charge of Sindh Wildlife’s rescue team Adnan Hamid said that the rescued dolphin was safely released near the Tomb of Seven Sisters located on the Indus River’s left bank near Rohri.
