Abstract
Status terkini mengenai mamalia akuatik di Pulau Pinang, Malaysia, tidak didokumentasikan. Ancaman seperti pembangunan pesisir pantai, penangkapan ikan dan aktiviti bot kini semakin meningkat. Tambahan lagi, terdatap bukti tentang aktiviti memerhati lumba-lumba yang tidak dikawal serta beberapa kejadian tangkapan haiwan setasea secara tidak sengaja yang boleh memberi kesan kepada populasi tempatan haiwan ini.
The current status of aquatic mammals in Penang Island, Malaysia, has largely been undocumented. Threats such as coastal development, tourism, fishing, and boating activities are increasing. Additionally, there is evidence of unregulated dolphin watching and incidental catches of cetaceans in fishing gears, which could be affecting the local populations of these animals.
