WATCH: Dolphin trapped briefly in CamSur waters

A young dolphin was briefly trapped in a protection net of a resort in Del Gallego town in Camarines Sur province Saturday afternoon.

The incident occurred at about 2 p.m. at the protection net of a resort near Isla Sta. Rita, GMA News correspondent Peewee Bacuño reported.

Swimmers in the area were surprised to hear the noises made by the dolphin as it struggled to break free.

Resort personnel eventually managed to free the dolphin. The report noted the resort's owner, Sherwin Bugarin, is a volunteer of environment group Greenpeace.

But even beafter it was freed, the dolphin did not immediately leave - it even seemed to play with some of the swimmers until it was led to the deeper part of the waters.

Bugarin said many endangered species usually find their way to the Sta. Rita area.

Last month, these included a large pawikan and a pregnant shark. The shark died after giving birth.

Photos tweeted by Bacuño showed the dolphin trapped in the protection net  and released.
