Groupstranding Spinner dolphins

Writer: Rodney WesterlakenRodney Westerlaken

Yesterday evening we received a message that a number of dolphins stranded in Pantai Batu Tumpeng. We confirmed the stranding with locals and our friends at BPSPL Denpasar and JAAN and went to the stranding site. At the site we learned that 13 Spinner dolphins stranded (Stenella longorostris) stranded. One dolphin restranded, which was released back immediately. After surveying for restrandings for 1.5 hour we returned home, while the JAAN team remained on site. In the morning one dolphin was found on the beach with major injuries.

The Stop Orphanages Campaign is an initiative spearheaded by Westerlaken Foundation and Yayasan Bali Bersih. Its primary objective is to combat the exploitation of children and the use of orphanages as a means of personal gain, and children as a marketing tool. While we acknowledge that there are Child Welfare Institutions (LKSA) in Indonesia that genuinely prioritize the well-being of children, extensive research reveals that a majority of orphanages in Bali, Indonesia operate in violation of the National Standard for Child Welfare Institutions (30/HUK/2011). This standard explicitly prohibits the institutionalization of children based on poverty or limited access to education, as well as emphasizes the importance of empowering families and preventing the recruitment of children into orphanages.
