    "This interim report outlines the initial findings and the ongoing analyses in the investigation of the bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) mortality event that began in March 2004. One hundred and seven (107) bottlenose dolphins stranded dead along the Florida Panhandle between March 10 and April 13, 2004. Hundreds of dead fish and marine invertebrates were also discovered in the area.

A multi-agency investigation was initiated and is being conducted by federal and state marine wildlife officials working in partnership with private research organizations and universities"--Executive Summary.
