New Zealand rescuers tries to save 10 stranded dolphins

The 10 common dolphins, including one calf, were stranded at Whakanewha Bay on Waiheke Island

Rescuers in New Zealand were on Friday trying to save 10 dolphins stranded on a remote beach, soaking them with buckets of water until the tide comes in to hopefully take them back out to sea, Qazet.az reports.

The 10 common dolphins, including one calf, were stranded at Whakanewha Bay on Waiheke Island, off the city of Auckland, the Department of Conservation (DOC) said in a Facebook post.

Volunteers were at the beach, bringing buckets of water to where the dolphins were stranded to keep them wet, the Stuff media outlet reported.
