"Bullied" hide from intrusive pod, officials say Dolphin

A lone Dolphin spent the last few days here in a California coast Bay, after several reports suggest it "was harassed" by a pod of other dolphins blocked his return to the open sea.
"He was afraid he was intimidated, he was victimized," said Peter Wallerstein of the marine animal rescue of the Los Angeles Times.
First tried wildlife officials encouraging sea to return "Bolsa Chica Bob". But if the dolphin, the nickname, which he has taken under protection after the section of the wetlands, tried again in the sea he joined by two other dolphins that blocked his way.
"Could it can be very aggressive, even with each other, tensions between the Dolphin pod and dolphins", Wallerstein said.
Now, Wallerstein says officials are not more pressure on the 7-foot dolphin, leave the Bay, say there is a plentiful supply of fish should he choose the field of his permanent home.
"In harm's way by forcing it very carefully his are," he said.

Not everyone is convinced, however, that the Dolphin is actually bullied.
"Maybe the other angry", said Dennis Kelly, Chairman of the Marine Science Department at Orange Coast College, the Orange County Register.
"" "You are behind, you idiot back." Perhaps they wanted to strike. ' You pay not attention. Blow! "OK, we leave.'"
