A 65-foot humpback whale that had washed up on a beach in C was eventually taken back into the water after a 20-hour rescue operation. The day a group of fisherman came upon a massive s whale will never be forgotten!
A sizable sᴘᴇʀᴍ whale was stranded on land in Ningbo City, south of Shanghai. If it wasn’t returned to the water fast enough, it was thought that it would perish from dehydration.
Whales need water to stay cool even though they breathe oxygen just like creatures on land do. A beached whale runs the ʀɪsᴋ of drowning or collapsing under their own weight if the high tide covers the blowhole.
In order to save the whale, fireғɪɢʜᴛers dispatched a rescue squad, who built a seawater trench pool and doused its 20-meter body with water. Volunteers helped transport the whale, which is estimated to have weighed 10 tons.
The whale was pulled to shallow waters after being tied up with ropes. A tugboat was deployed to help move the whale farther out into the ocean at around 10 o’clock, when the tide was at its greatest.
The whale was released in deep waters after the rescue team cut the hauling line at 5:30 a.m. on Wednesday.
