"The reason the dolphins got stranded was because of the monsoon season when the fish swam ashore right when the water was receding," said Mr. Nguyen, a fisherman who participated in rescuing the dolphins.

Many fishermen came to rescue the dolphins. They poured water on the dolphins to prevent their skin from drying out, and when the water level rose, they used force to pull the dolphins out to sea.

Many people then recorded the video and shared it on social networks, attracting thousands of likes and surprised comments.

According to the images on the videos, the dolphins have long, smooth bodies. Their skin is gray or slightly blue.
