I agree with you 100%, it's tragic and horrible. Dolphins (and porpoises in general) are smart, gentle and wonderful animals to be around. The Bay of Fundy just South of my home is teaming with wildlife like these as well as whales ranging from Humpback and Fin's to the big boys like Blue whales. Sadly, getting trapped in ice flow's is something that happens, the Coast Guard and Fisheries (our version of Fish & Wildlife) save far more than you could count but still, it's very sad when things like this happen.

On the truly negative side, it's almost spring so the seal hunt should be starting soon.

I suppose that's true, but it's hard to see this as "thinning the herd". Sad.

I live a few hours from where this happened, as tragic as it sounds it's part of nature.
