Goa Tourism Department Apologizes for Dolphin Poster Error

Goa’s tourism department has acknowledged and apologized for an error in its promotional posters for the World Travel Mart in London, which featured a bottlenose dolphin instead of the local Indian Ocean humpback dolphin. The department initially claimed the dolphin was a symbolic representation of Goa’s marine life, but after criticism from ecologists and community members, they admitted the oversight and pledged to ensure accuracy in future promotional materials. They expressed gratitude for the feedback and stated their commitment to accurately representing Goa’s natural heritage.
