    Thanks for posting this. my husband told me about it yesterday but the story he found wasn't nearly so informative. This one has alot of good pictures. I'm currently illustrating a kids book about whales, I've been looking at tons of pictures of them, so this is especially interesting!

    The whale has died at 7.00pm on the barge - have just been watching live BBC news on the internet.

    So very sad - they certainly pulled out all the stops to try and save it, though I suspect it would have died whatever was done for it - it is usually a sign that something is very wrong when they go off route like that. The people who worked so hard to try and save it will be devastated.


    RIP, big guy.

    Rest in peace, bottlenose friend. I am sorry you were sick, and hurt, and we humans tried to help.

    Swim nicely in the seas of heaven, join the pod of friends gone on before, and know that you touched many lives and hearts.

    Poor whale but at least all of those kind hearted people tried to save it. It's not struggling or in pain any more, but it's such a shame
