Clyde dolphin 'unlikely to live'
Video of Dolphin swimming up the river, and full story here.
Patrick Pollock, a fellow in equine surgery at Glasgow University, made the assessment after inspecting the Risso's dolphin from a fire brigade dinghy.
He said the mammal was "emaciated" and had a "nasty laceration" to its head.
The 10ft-long creature first appeared on Sunday and has been swimming further inland. So far, all attempts to usher it back out to sea have failed.
