Scientists ‘surprised’ to find 4 rare dolphins dead on Mississippi barrier island
SUMMARY: Four Pantropical Spotted Dolphins, a rare sight in the Mississippi Sound, were found beached on Petit Bois Island last Saturday. The Institute for Marine Mammal Studies (IMMS) responded to the report, considering the stranding event unusual as it involved four dolphins of the same species. Samples and photographs were collected for analysis. The dolphins were taken to IMMS labs for further evaluation, and necropsies will be performed with the Mississippi State University College of Veterinary Medicine to determine the cause of their deaths. Anyone encountering stranded aquatic creatures should contact the IMMS Stranding Hotline at 1-888-767-3657.

The IRS, alongside its Security Summit partners, promotes the ninth annual National Tax Security Awareness Week, advising taxpayers to exercise caution during holiday shopping and the upcoming tax season.
