Dead Dolphins

[Lady D]

I read something on the internet yesterday, I think on the MSN home page, about some dolphins being found dead on the South Walton County beaches. I think they mentioned either 21 or 31 were found. I hope this information was not true. Dolphins are such a pleasure to watch! Has anyone down there heard about this?

I googled dead dolphins south walton florida and the last news was from 1999/2000 when some dolphins died in Panhandle due to red tide. The Walton Sun would have something this weekend if this happened recently.
