The exact reason behind the Indian Ocean humpback dolphin's death could not be ascertained as body was too decomposed for a post-mortem
The carcass was buried in a pit on the beach
"With the help of the JCB given to us by Amitabh Bachchan for the beach clean-up, BMC workers, with the help of the mangroves cell and our volunteers, buried the dolphin in a huge pit on the side of the beach," added Shah.
The mangrove cell of the forest department decided against conducting a post-mortem to find out the exact cause of death as the carcass was highly decomposed. Marine experts were also of the opinion that the carcass looked too bloated for a post-mortem.
