Related: About this forumDolphin shot to death on California beach
BY ARIS FOLLEY - 11/17/18 10:56 PM EST
An animal welfare organization is offering a cash reward for more information about the shooting death of a dolphin in Manhattan Beach, California, earlier this month.
Marine Animal Rescue announced on their Facebook page Friday that they would be offering a $5,000 reward for information leading to the mammals death after an necropsy confirmed the animal died from a gunshot wound.
Peter Wallerstein, the founder of the rescue group, told NBC News he received a call to rescue the stranded dolphin after it was spotted on the surf earlier this month. By the time he arrived at the scene, he and a lifeguard discovered the floating dolphin died.
"It's just a vicious act of brutality," Wallerstein told the news service.

Individuals committing such heinous acts should be banned from owning or using any firearms for life!
