Divers Rescue Dolphin Tangled in Fishing Line
Dramatic underwater footage captures divers rescuing a bottlenose dolphin that was hooked by a fishing line. Divers off the coast of Hawaii rescued a bottlenose dolphin they say seemed to "ask for help." The dolphin swam into the lighted areas where SCUBA dive instructors noticed that fishing line was restricting the dolphin's movement. The encounter was caught on video on January 11 when Keller Laros spent close to 8 minutes next to the mammal.
