A dolphin named Fraggle was seen carrying her dead calf through Western Australia's Leschenault Estuary after it died just two weeks after birth. Other dolphins appeared to remain close as she carried the calf, reflecting the strong social bonds observed among the animals. Dolphin mothers have been documented carrying, supporting or pushing their deceased calves for hours or even days. Researchers describe this as care-giving or grief-like behaviour.
