THIS is the sickening moment migrants in Ceuta are caught parading a baby dolphin around a beach before reportedly beating it to death.
Shocking footage shows the crowd of laughing migrants all trying to touch the small marine mammal after they dragged it out of the sea.
The disturbing footage, which appears to have been filmed by one of those in the group, shows the baby dolphin washed up on the shore on Trampolin Beach.
Two men in high-vis jackets and gloves run over and check on the calf before several migrants swarm around them.
One of the illegal migrants then drags the dolphin by its face out of the water and onto the rocks.
He then picks it up with a smirk on his face and holds it up so others can touch it – including several young teenagers.
The man then hoists it above his head as he flashes a sickening grin as the calf tries to move in his hands.
One of the high-vis officials tries to get the man to put the animal back but he ignores the pleas.
During the chaos, one migrant allegedly hit the animal on the head with a stick and seriously injured it before it later died, reports Telecinco.
Enraged locals quickly ran onto Trampolin Beach in the North African enclave to help order the migrants to put down the dolphin.
Screams of “no” can be heard in the video as they manage to wrestle the dolphin off one of the men and put the calf back in the water but local reports claimed it was already too late.
The harrowing scenes sparked an online petition demanding the men responsible were arrested and charged with animal cruelty.
Nadia Garcia Gomez launched the petition as she claimed in a post: “On Wednesday, September 2, 2026, a disoriented dolphin calf swimming near the shore at Trampolin Beach, in Ceuta, was brutally pulled from the water.
“Eyewitnesses and local media reported that the animal was handled as if it were an object and violently struck on the head with a stick, causing its immediate death.”
Nadia continued: “This act of extreme and unjustifiable cruelty cannot go unpunished.
“Dolphins are strictly protected species under Spanish and European laws, and mistreatment of them constitutes a serious criminal offence.
“We demand that all necessary resources be used to formally identify those involved in this killing and that the full weight of the law fall upon them.”
It comes as almost 5,000 illegal migrants are still in Ceuta over a month on from the major border breach that saw an estimated 72,000 men, women and children swarm the enclave.
