Short-finned pilot whale recovers well in Sanya, S China

8月2日，在海南三亞海昌生物保育中心，保育員給短肢領(lǐng)航鯨“海莉”喂食。近日，在海南三亞海棠灣因擱淺被救助的短肢領(lǐng)航鯨“海莉”行為恢復(fù)良好，開始自主下潛與進(jìn)食。為了增加其活動量，救助團(tuán)隊將其活動區(qū)域由醫(yī)療池增加至三個水池，后續(xù)將根據(jù)“海莉”的身體狀況進(jìn)一步確定治療方案和放歸計劃。據(jù)了解，短肢領(lǐng)航鯨“海莉”剛被救助時身體無法保持平衡，也不能自主進(jìn)食，前期只能依靠救助人員托扶和灌食。[新華社記者 張麗蕓 攝]
