Just read in the paper the dolphins are starving and coming to the shore to die, true? Why would they starve, lots of fishes in the ocean, or is it because of the waters contamination?

Dolphins will never starve, they are to smart for that, the ocean is huge and there is so much fish out there. Its impossible.

Actually, there aren't as many fish in the ocean as you would think. As it happens, the open ocean is like a veritable desert, with not much substantial life in it at all...just a lot of water and plankton. Dolphin pods have to travel massive distances in search of food, and due to pollution and over fishing, the areas of the ocean that do tend to support more life and consequently have more fish are starting to get into serious trouble. So ocean creatures that rely on fish as their only food source are suffering badly.
Us humans are not very nice to the animals we share the planet with :-(
