Dolphins and whales work to save people

Ronnie Dabal is fishing outside Puerto Princesa Bay (Philippines) on the afternoon of December 17 when a strong wind overturned his boat. He quickly grabbed the plastic surfboard and tried to keep his head above the water.

Hours passed but Ronnie could not see any boats or boats passing by. The last rays of the day on the day of the day fell like his hope. The feeling of being surrounded by the darkness in an immense water made Ronnie feel scared. He faded away because of hunger and cold.

Suddenly Ronnie heard loud thumps, about 30 dolphins and a pair of whales up to 10 meters long appeared. The dolphins took turns carrying him to the shore, and the whales escorted the two sides. 24 hours later, Ronnie woke up on the beach.

Ronnie, 35 and has two children, is a part-time dolphin guard in Puerto Princesa Bay. His mission is to find dolphins for tourists to watch and collect waste in their living areas.

Edward Hagedorn, Puerto Princesa's mayor, was excited to hear Ronnie's story. He said: 'Ronnie's story is the best proof that human efforts to protect the environment will be rewarded. I dare say that saving Ronnie is a way for dolphins and whales to show gratitude to him. '
