engelska-portugisiska översättning av porpoise

toninhaMorrem em vão demasiados golfinhos, toninhas e focas devido à utilização destas redes. Too many dolphins, porpoises and seals die needlessly due to the use of these nets. Em 2002 e 2003, o mar arrastou para a costa mais de 300 golfinhos e toninhas mortos, depositando os seus cadáveres nas praias. In 2002 and 2003, over 300 dolphins and porpoises were washed ashore and their carcasses could be seen on beaches. Não podemos esperar que a última toninha esteja morta para, finalmente, estabelecermos provas cientificamente fundamentadas, pois nessa altura já será demasiado tarde. I do not think we can wait until the last porpoise is dead before we finally establish the scientific proofs, for then it will be too late.
