- BY BRYNMOR PATTISON

THIS is the moment a kindhearte­d woman rescues a stranded baby dolphin on an Irish shore.

Jenni Hanninen, from Finland, was out horse riding on Seapoint Beach in Termonfeck­in, Co Louth, with two friends when they spotted the mammal washed up.

In the video, Jenni picks up the dolphin and carries it out to the water before releasing it into the wild again last Saturday. Another baby dolphin is also said to have been rescued by the woman on the same day.

The Piperstown Stables account tweeted the video and said: “Piperstown’s Jenni Hänninen, originally from Finland, seen in action saving two dolphins stranded on Seapoint beach in Louth.

“Not only is Jenni one of our top riders in the yard, also turns out she’s a cracking life guard, it must be the ‘Fin’-ish in her.”
