The animal has a sort of beak and tail hair
Russian scientists are baffled. What kind belongs that strange creature whose remains have been found on a beach on the island of Sakhalin?The strange being twice as large as a human and an enormous mouth like the beak of a bird, bears some similarities to the Indian Ganges dolphin but marine biologists are intrigued, especially hair this mysterious "mutant" seems have queued.
"It is a rare species," said the newspaper Siberian Times Nikolay Kim, deputy director of the Department of Forecasts of the Research Institute of Fisheries and Oceanography Sakhalin. In his opinion, it is "a great Dolphin" did not live in Russian waters. "Most likely, the animal was brought by a warm current" considered Kim, for whom however is "unusual" to have hair. "The dolphins do not have any fur" he says.
The discovery of the strange creature near the airport Shakhtersk has raised all sorts of conjecture on social networks. Some find similarities with Ganges river dolphin that lives in India, Pakistan, Nepal and Bangladesh. This species, unlike other typical dolphin has a small triangular hump instead of a dorsal fin. However, its size is much smaller animal found in Russia and has no hair.
"Probably our summer is so cold that even the Indians dolphins who come to these waters are covered with hair," joked one resident quoted by Sakhalin Media and Siberian Times.
