Last night sadly Newhaven Coastguard reported that another sea mammal had been washed up deceased on Saltdean Beach. 
Recently a rare ​Rare Sowerby's Beaked Whale was found on Saltdean Beach and now just over a week later what looks like to be a small deceased porpoise has been found on the Saltdean shoreline, though because porpoises and dolphins are so similar until identification is confirmed it unsure which species it is. 

​We have no further information other than in a social media post last night the Newhaven Coastguard said, ''we carried out a search at Saltdean for the deceased Dolphin. The Dolphin was located but was quite badly damaged and in too poor a condition to be taken to the Natural History Museum. The council have been tasked to remove the carcass as soon as possible.''
