Viral footage out of the invaded Spanish enclave of Ceuta shows a bottlenose dolphin calf came in close to the sand at Playa del Trampolín in Ceuta this week, disoriented and still alive. A group of men who entered illegally in the July surge pulled it from the water, hoisted it like a prize, and - according to local reporting, a conservation complaint, and Telecinco - one of them bludgeoned it in the head with a stick.
An Ecoservicios worker in high-vis tried to stop the handling. Voices on the clip can be heard shouting "No! No! You can't eat it! It's a dolphin!" The animal was killed. Some of the men then moved off toward the breakwater with the body.
The conservation group DAUBMA took photographs, clips and social-media stills to the Guardia Civil and asked for animal-cruelty and protected-fauna charges. Alvise Pérez's Se Acabó la Fiesta filed at Ceuta's court on the same facts. A petition by Nadia García Gómez put it in writing: the calf was "brutally pulled from the water... handled as if it were an object and violently struck on the head."
?? "NO! NO! YOU CAN'T EAT IT! IT'S A DOLPHIN!"
A video from Ceuta shows a group of migrants pulling a dolphin calf from the water as a man desperately tries to stop them.
The group reportedly found the calf near the shore at Playa del Trampolín, pulled it from the water, and...
Spanish citizens must now share their city with savages who treat a dolphin like a piñata.

They likely have a lower IQ than the animal they pulled out of the sea and bludgeoned. They are predatory scum acting solely on chemical instinct, completely lacking in empathy, judgement or respect for anything other than their own worthless existence.
El Trampolín is not a postcard cove anymore. It is the same strip that has held thousands of arrivals since late July, when more than 70,000 people crossed from Morocco into a city of roughly 84,000.
Madrid still talks as if most of them "went home," yet the reality is that reed shacks, rotting food and human waste have sat on that shoreline for weeks. The calf swam into that hell and couldn't escape.
One of the men in the circle was filming the spectacle on what looks like an iPhone 17 Pro Max. The "destitute asylum seeker" kit keeps getting more expensive.

— m o d e r n i t y (@ModernityNews) September 4, 2026DAUBMA says the calf reached the shallows alive, was dragged out, was struck, and shows a bleeding wound under one eye while people on the tape try to wipe the blood. It called the case "extrema gravedad ambiental" and asked the environmental prosecutor to take it. Bottlenose dolphins are protected under Spanish and EU law.
A day earlier the animal-rights party PACMA shared a clip showing a migrant in Ceuta immobilising a park goose, bagging it, legs bound, a fish already in hand. A bystander intervened and the bird was dropped. The man left the scene.
?Esto ha ocurrido en Ceuta hace escasas horas.
?Un hombre ha pillado a otro inmovilizando y embolsando a una oca de un parque público para llevársela. Se desconoce el objetivo, pero nada bueno.
?La bandera que ampare al maltratador es total y absolutamente irrelevante para... pic.twitter.com/Jle5dirVlY
PACMA issued a statement condemning "any act of violence, capture or manipulation of an animal, regardless of who commits it, their nationality, origin or administrative situation," while adding that there is "not enough information to affirm that the incidents with animals were motivated by hunger."
As we highlighted in mid-August carers who feed Ceuta's street-cat colonies said sites by the desalination plant and in Huerta Téllez, Carmelitas, Príncipe, Sidi Embarek and Punta Blanca had emptied after the migrant camps spread over the same ground. Volunteers described dead cats found cut or missing half a body, and pigeons and gulls half-eaten near the settlements.
Conservative influencer Eva Vlaardingerbroek points out that while everyone is rightly disgusted over the dolphin incident, European children are being raped and killed by migrants relentlessly, and it's beginning to become little more than background noise.
"It took a dolphin calf," she wrote. "That says something about the way our society views the value of human children." She also pointed to the Lindsay Clancy case in the United States - a mother who strangled her three children and was immediately wrapped in feminist excuse-making. Murder a dolphin instead, Vlaardingerbroek noted, and that chorus disappears.
Everyone is rightfully outraged over migrants in Ceuta beating a baby dolphin to death, but European children are raped and killed by migrants on a daily basis and we barely see this level of fury.

The situation in Ceuta remains dire. Playgrounds that used to hold Spanish children are smeared with excrement. Beaches that held families have become open latrines. Mothers cannot let their daughters outside without a male escort.
Ceuta's chief prosecutor, Silvia Rojas, told Spanish media that 23 sexual assaults - nine of them against children - had been recorded since the late-July surge, almost one case a day. Police unions speak of women and girls clinging to vans near the CETI because stepping away results in assault, and being dragged into the hills.
Locals have had enough. In late August residents tore beach camps apart, threw gear into the sea and chanted that if the men would not leave, Ceuta would throw them out. Police put a cordon between Spaniards and the shacks and used rubber bullets on the people who live there.
The revolt did not stay inside the enclave. Marches spread across the peninsula.
Sánchez went to Congress and called it "absurd to think that the government knew and did nothing." He boasted of returns "within 72 hours" and a €309 million emergency package. Foreign Minister José Manuel Albares has claimed "practically the entirety" of those who entered have gone back to Morocco.
Video from El Trampolín a month later still shows tents, wrecked shoreline and a city that looks sacked. Tent camps billed for 1,500 cannot accomodate 5,000 to 10,000 people.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is seeking to move quickly to dismiss more asylum cases found legally insufficient.
The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement at the Department of Homeland Security in Washington on Feb. 17, 2026.(Madalina Kilroy/The Epoch Times) (The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement at the Department of Homeland Security in Washington on"If an asylum claim is facially deficient, you don't need an evidentiary hearing. We are done wasting time and government resources indulging sham asylum claims." DHS general counsel James Percival wrote in an X statement on Sept. 3.
Evidentiary hearings, also known as merits hearings, allow asylum applicants and DHS officials to present evidence regarding asylum claims. They also give immigration judges an opportunity to hear arguments from both sides and review the evidence submitted.
The department's push to expedite the dismissal of asylum claims deemed legally insufficient follows multiple actions by the Trump administration to crack down on asylum fraud.
In his social media post on Thursday, Percival shared a Fox News report that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE's) Office of the Principal Legal Advisor's attorneys had been instructed by DHS to seek the dismissal of legally insufficient asylum applications.
The attorneys were instructed by DHS to file motions to pretermit in immigration court, according to the report. Pretermit motions formally request that immigration judges deny asylum applications prior to full merits hearings.
Asked about the new guidance, a DHS spokesperson told The Epoch Times that a pending asylum application did not "confer legal status" in the United States.
"America's asylum system was never intended to be used as a de facto amnesty program or a catch-all, get-out-of-deportation-free card," the spokesperson said in an emailed statement on Sept. 3.
President Donald Trump and DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin have reversed the previous administration's "catch and release" border policy. The policy allowed many illegal immigrants to be released into the United States instead of detaining them until their immigration cases were resolved.
"All illegal aliens receive due process. We are applying the law as written by Congress," the DHS spokesperson said.
The Epoch Times reached out to ICE about the new guidance but did not hear back before publication time.
Administration's Broader Asylum MeasuresThe department's U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) previously announced an interim rule change in late July to expedite asylum applications.
The interim rule change allows USCIS to refer asylum applications to immigration judges without interviewing asylum applicants in advance. The change was implemented to reduce the backlog of asylum applications.
When the asylum application rule change was announced in July, Percival said it would improve efficiency and fulfill Trump's immigration mandate.
"One of the greatest barriers to effective immigration enforcement is intentional delay by illegal aliens and the open borders attorneys who represent them," he said.
In May, DHS directed ICE to crack down on fraudulent asylum claims by taking action against attorneys who file false asylum claims in immigration court.
On Sept. 3, the spokesperson added that the department has worked for months to recruit new immigration judges who will "ensure the rule of law and restore integrity" to the immigration system in the United States.
The DHS directive came after Trump issued a presidential memorandum in March in response to what he described as "rampant fraud and meritless claims" in America's immigration system. The memorandum called for lawyers and law firms to be held accountable for misconduct.
Homeland Security Investigations later announced in July that it was seeking to impose a fine of more than $470,000 against an immigration attorney who allegedly filed false asylum claims for clients.
Trump's memorandum was criticized by the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) as a "chilling directive" targeting immigration attorneys, law firms, and the immigration bar.
"It seeks to delegitimize the work of resolute professionals who ensure that immigrants - many of whom are fleeing persecution and are contributing to their new communities - have access to fair legal representation," AILA President Kelli Stump said at the time.
