Many years back, schools of dolphins used to swim with the ferries that ply
the waters of Penang and Butterworth. I used to look forward to those rides
because of that and jumped in delight upon seeing them. Then, they were no
more. Perhaps they migrated for reasons known only to them. Lately, they
were spotted again in schools of twenties and although I welcome their return,
there is a tinge of sadness in me about our environment and the industries
that dump pollutants without mercy. Did they return because the waters
somewhere they went to is no longer viable for them to live? Is global warming
taking its toll? Or was it a sign of things to come? Guess we wouldn’t be able to
know what their laughing eyes tell..
