This is the moment a pair of fishermen rescued a baby dolphin trapped in a fishing net.
Jose Ramón Pérez, 27, and Miguel Rodríguez, 36, were fishing 10km off the coast of Almería, Spain when they found the animal tangled in a net.
The two men spotted the young dolphin thanks to its mother, which had been desperately trying to keep her baby afloat.
The baby's tail was tangled in a rope and was being pulled underwater - almost drowning it.
But its mother would not leave its side and kept trying to lift it and keep its head above water.
José Ramon, a warehouse worker, and Miguel, a greenhouse owner, rushed to the baby's help after seeing the mother lift her flank above the waterline.

00:11 Or it's almost dead.
00:13 It's giving birth to something.
00:15 No, look, it's tied up, man.
00:17 Man, who does that to an animal?
00:23 Look, it's up again, man.
00:26 The mother doesn't want it to die.
00:28 Oh my God, what an animal.
00:30 There are good people in the world, my friends.
00:35 Here we are saving a dolphin.
00:38 You're welcome, my friend.
00:43 That one is going to remember you for the rest of its life.
00:49 You saved it.
00:51 I'm still shaking, man.
