Dolphin was 'already dead' when crowd in Argentina handled it – tourist

Hernan Coria says endangered dolphin was one of many which had washed up dead on Santa Teresita beach before crowd started taking selfies with it

One of the tourists who handed around a dolphin on an Argentinian beach claims it had died before people started taking selfies with it.

Footage appeared to show the small dolphin being scooped up and taken to land where it was surrounded by a gawking crowd. Reports said it quickly overheated and died when it was paraded along the beach so holidaymakers could take photos.
