There’s a new dolphin in town. Okay, scratch that. Scientists have discovered a new species of dolphin. It has been dubbed the world’s ugliest dolphin due to its bulbous head. It’s unique to the waters near Australia and this is a breakthrough discovery.

The dolphin was originally thought to be the declining irrawaddy dolphin. It was hard to distinguish because they are quite shy and run away from human contact. But some lucky researchers stumbled across them and even got some footage:

Poor little dolphin, everyone hating on him because he has a funny face and big nose. Not everyone can be Flipper. Sheesh![Source: Life in the Fast Lane]
