Several bottlenose dolphins have been spotted in the Shrewsbury River in New Jersey. Experts had hoped to coax the dolphins out of the river for the open ocean before July 4, 2008, as the area is a popular boating destination during the holiday. Officials said they were taking precautions to protect the dolphins from danger over the long Independence Day weekend.NJ.com: More Protection for Shrewsbury Dolphins Over July 4 Weekend (July 3, 2008)
